Sail-ine Solution

I’ve (Gerry) spent a great deal of this last year around boats working on, and watching them operate. During this time, I’ve come to realize how bad most boat names are. It appears to me, one requirement to be licensed to operate a boat is that you lack a single creative bone in your body. In many cases, opting out of naming your boat would be the best decision.

Putting personal affiliations like favorite sports teams, or your Alma Mater, can go way over the top too. Case in point, is a gaudy “Hooked on Jesus” moniker with a fancy paint job, that sits at a local marina. If someone pulled up with “Hooked on Allah” on their boat, they’d be run right out of town.

The future Captain of “Sail-ine Solution”

I have really no interest in owning a boat, but if I did, “Sail-ine Solution” would be its name. I thought of this a few years back, and didn’t think of it as anything too creative, until I realized what was actually out there. If I can help change the course of this existing mentality, out on the waters, then maybe I’ve made a small contribution.

About arneradventures

Hi, we are Shannon and Gerry Arner, and our rescue, fur baby, Betty White. After owning our own business, working 24/7, we made a lifestyle change and decided to make the most out of life. We sold our house, downsized, and moved to the coast. We are wanderlusters; we live life minimally, but fully. We live each day as an adventure, and enjoy sharing them with you!
