Hey Rick, is it possible for you to change my name to MauganN20 ? <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I don't want to lose my "street cred" or "pooh-bah" status just because I'm driving something else after 2 years of being boatless <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Does this mean you got you a new toy?

Wait! Can we make suggestions for Tad's new name?

I researched the name Maugan once before, and this is what I found. So maybe it is appropriate:

In the fictional universe of Warhammer 40,000, Maugan Ra is an Eldar from the Craftworld Altansar and the Phoenix Lord who founded the Dark Reapers Aspect Shrine. He wields the Maugetar (lit. Harvester), a shuriken cannon with a scythe-like attachment, and wears a suit of armour of his now destroyed temple, morbidly decorated with skulls and bone shapes. His aspect, the Dark Reapers, use long range, rapid-fire missile launchers to attack those who oppose the Eldar.

The immortal Maugan Ra has fought countless battles throughout the centuries, and died and been reborn many times. He no longer requires a physical body within his armour. He came to the aid of the craftworld Iyanden, along with a bodyguard of one hundred Dark Reapers, who played a large role in the defense of the craftworld during the Tyranid invasion. More recently Maugan Ra contributed greatly to the Eye of Terror campaign, joining with the craftworld Ulthwé and creating the infamous Strike forces to stem the tide of chaos. It was Maugan Ra's determination to save the craftworld Altansar from the Eye of Terror that enabled the Eldar to rediscover the long lost world and its people.

Ooo...that's skeery.

Say, I hear someone is a new I20 owner. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

come on man, spill the beans!! new boat?

Mary, you're spot on with the name, its a character that I used to have back when I did the whole wargaming thing. Still paint the little "army men" as a hobby from time to time. Maugan Ra is particularly scary.

And yes, "Undecided" is switching hands and will be relocated to Lake Lanier.

Okay, as you can see, I have waved my magic wand and changed your name to MauganN20, and you are still a Poohbah. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Perhaps you need to give your wHand a little kHick, MarHy. It hasn't quite workHed...<img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

H's are very elusive.

N20 or I20?

same thing....N20 = I20

Tad just purchased my yellow and white 2001 Nacra 20. It will still be a Velocity Sailing boat, just as always. Now I just gotta sell my other N20 so that I can get a new one!

Sweet!

*dances a jig*

That boat was an I20 when built - so if you're trying to call me on it...stop it. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Tad,
Are you bringing it to Catfest this weekend? I tried to race my 18 mod at Ya Gotta but the mast I got from Trey had seized diamond wires. Replaced them and plan on being there this weekend to race open class, with you?

nope can't do catfest due to family obligations <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Trey will probably be there though.

"He wields the Maugetar..."

We may not have gotten to choose his new user name, but I think we have a winner for the new name for the boat -

The "Maugetar"!

Man I can't rename Undecided.

Its legendary!

Ok, how about I name my tiller extension "The Maugetar"

I don't think that would make neptune too angry.

What's the problem? Can't find a virgin to pee over the side while you cross the equator backwards? (I can't remember, but isn't that the "proper" way to rename a boat?)

And does the virgin have to be female? I know a lot of online-gamers that would fit the bill if a female gender is not required... <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />

Slightly off topic, but weren't women on ships bad luck? If so, how can you get a virgin (female) on the ship to change the name, but not get the bad luck associated with it?

Folk lore is so confusing sometimes. Abast Ye..
