Far Canal ! Great name had me chuckling all day ?

 

[MikeBz]

I knew someone (RIP Roger Fox) who had a Gem Micro 18 back in the day named "Anagram of Meg". I think that's my favourite of all time.

Even further back the day a guy at my club had a Minisail Sprint (the sliding seat version) which he called Waning Planker, and after that a home-built Int. Moth painted brown and named "Shying Flight".

Used to be a yacht in the Medway called "I Say, Ding Dong"

She was in Lymington til Covid, we haven‘t seen her relaunch.

On the back water at Shepperton on Weybridge side was " Hoof Harted"

 

[Chiara’s slave]

Ribbed, for her pleasure, on a huge luxurious RIB, equipped for 4 or 5 sunbathing females.

On a very fast sports boat….”Far Canal”

I came here to write that! Saw that on a speedboat on a trailer in Hythe Marina when I was a little boy, many years ago.

 

[Outinthedinghy]

A narrow boat called "The Dogs" from Bow Locks is quite a good one.

I've seen Far Canal as a location on a narrow boat too.

And of course Ferkham Hall, Sodem Hall etc

I was going to say Far Canal as we saw one moored at Harleyford Once. Tin Lizzie is also a good one for a metal boat (also seen on the Thames)

 

[Two Soups]

Also seen a 'Ship Happens' which I thought was good...

 

[TrueBlue]

A racing dinghy whit frequented the tideway at Putney and Minima Y C at Kingston -

Our first Stevens was renamed Tin Lizzie - much to our disappointment!

[Quint]

How about ANT on DECK !

We came across Tin Lizzie and also Heavy Metal in the Azores, the latter was a German boat, lovely people, we hired a car and explored Santa Maria together.
