Well if you know about Poseidon, then yeah, do the launching/blessing ritual...just search for forums for "naming my boat" or something similar. It's been posted before, along with the ritual for re-naming...never hurts to have the water on your side.

Re: just named my boat ?

well, i have searched for something to say. iboats + googled nameing boat and only good thing i hit on was something said by richard burton in a movie. that was close. but what does some movie maker know about nameing boats. i was hopeing for better. used to even have a link in my 'puter but cant find that either. guess i can always just say a few of my own words.....

Re: just named my boat ?

thanks td.

that was the only one i found too. came up on a google. may have to run with that one i guess. surely i'll have to say something to appease the gods. i aint perticularly supersticious. but why take a chance......

went to that other site ya posted before (prior to edit). that's a good site. but they only seemed to have a re-nameing cerimony. i don't believe this aristocraft has ever been named before......
