Dang - sorry for keeping you all in suspense. Actually, we just made the decision a couple of weeks ago. I let my husband choose, since he hated all my suggestions and he knew which ideas of his I truly didn’t want. The choice is [**Draco**](http://www.seds.org/Maps/Stars_en/Fig/draco.html). ---

The old link is dead. What kind is she? I’m bummed I missed this first time around. I think Hummina is a great boat name. Just think of the radio call. Humminahumminahummina. ---

Ooop - sorry, \*\*NurseCarmen \*\* - I’ve been messing with some of my online photo albums and I think I lost a couple. [This](http://www.boatsville.com/used_boats_detail.cfm?boatid=14622) is our Islander 36. I can’t believe this ad is still up - we bought her in July… The Nav Station photo is inaccurate. Most of the equipment there was inoperative, so we removed it. All that will remain is a new VHF and an AM/FM/CD unit. The rest will be open shelves. And all the crap on the mast has been removed and trashed. We threw out a lot of garbage they left behind - including used deodorant and half-filled toiletries. Ick. The refurbished electrical work is almost done, and I’m about to start reupholstering all the cushions. ---

Considering your username, how about **FairyBoat**? ---

Somehow, I can’t see my husband wearing a shirt embroidered with FairyBoat… No, \*\*Draco \*\* it will be. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/wanted-boat-names/365653.md?page=5)
