[Public-list] Name for #148

[Roger L. Kingsland]

Albergers,

Some of you may recall that, in the pre new server era,  I initiated some discussion of boat names in an effort to intellectualize a new name for A30, #148, formerly, "Mahina Manu."  Some of the names we considered include;

.Passing Wind
Scout 
.Resolve 
.Onward 
.Sagacity
.Elegant 
.Vigor 
Splendid 
.Remarkable 
.Terrific 
.Zest 
.Patriot 
.Zoom 
.Flash 
.Kingswater
.Delight 
.Intuition 
.Alert 
.Avid
Tonic
.
Well, after a winter of analysis,  the Kingsland family has selected the name "PERFECT intentions."  It is a reference to the elusive pursuit of perfection that is a reality in my profession (architecture) which, I have learned, also applies to boat restoration.  Every building/boat  starts with a perfect vision and ends up as collection of compromises.  It is difficult to compromise a perfect vision but rewarding to achieve the final result, especially with a boat as beatiful as an Alberg.

Thanks for all the feedback.  I hope some day to join the Chesapeake racers and give everyone a great view of our new name on the transom.

Roger

The sender, thank goodness, is a much better architect/sailor than speller/editor and, frankly, constantly laments an obvious flaw in "spell check," it does not know what the author is thinking.

If present, they are certainly unintended and hopefully do not cloud the message, or spawn any unnecessary lawsuits.
