NAME REGISTRATION

[byron]

<font color=blue>INDIANA Thats cool. To me it would mean the State's name but then again I haven't a clue who or what Indiana Jones is.

Re: Name options

In my experience it depends on the lender and size of the mortgage, they all seem to have slightly different rules.

Another thread listed the fees for registration but missed of what for me was the highest cost and that was the Survey required by the bank to confirm the dimensions. £300+ if memory serves me correctly

<font color=blue>Not taking the urine, ask me anything nautical and as others will tell you I am reasonably competant. Outside of the marine environment I have led a sheltered life so forgive me for not knowing about Indiania Jones. I will take a guess, Indiania = Indian Motor Bikes, Jones a Welshman that rides them. Alternatively a Welshman who was adopted by a red indian tribe.

Re: Name checking

I've heard other people say that you can't "check" the availability of a name on the Part 1 register although I have been able to do so on several occasions. Admittedly, I was talking to the Registry on other matters and just slipped in a supplementary question.

I suspect they're keen to avoid spending loads of time answering dozens of phone calls from people who are simply "flying kites". Beats me why they don't just publish an index of the names of Part 1 registered ships on a website then we could all check for ourselves?

<font color=blue> OK! OK! Topic now closed, someone just PM'd me. I now know Indiana Jones is an American playing Rugby for Cardiff. How was I to know, I don't follow sport.
Still armed with this information I can smile knowingly if I ever hear the name again.

I'm afriad Byron is letting down his own background ( he was brought up in Cardiff). The full story is that I used to be married ( for a very short time) to an Indianapolis lady and she, post our divorce ,settled and brought up a family in Wales - marrying a Jones ( I am not a Jones though my mother was). Now when we were together we all called her a 'hoosier girl' but the Welsh can't say 'hoosier' without spitting alll over the place ,hence she became That 'indiana' Jones..

Name stuck with her son who is a young up and coming rugby player playing for Cardiff - although quite why you should name a boat after him is totally beyond me.

Alistair,

Byron's not taking piss. You'd have to meet him...think along lines of one of those high court judges who asks '...and who is [insert name of very famous person]'

He's either on or off. If you're in a group talking about boats, he's animated, dynamic, full of humorous tales of boating exploits, an encyclopedia on any boating related topic.

If someone changes the conversation to anything topical or contemporary, he just sits there as though someone has turned him off at the mains. Doesn't know, doesn't care.

Back to boating topics, and he's back to life

[byron]

<font color=blue>Thats not true I know about topical subjects too including sporting personalities like this Indiana Jones dude. I know that Yvonne Goolagong just won a golf match against some geezer called Albert Schweitzer. I am up-to-date on the news as well. I know we may shortly be going to war against some bloke with a Taz who has invaded Poland.

[BrendanS]

OK, astound me

give us the topic of any article in the news this week (big hint - war, and not the II world sort),

and name at least one popular TV show that has shown in the last 5 years

<hr width=100% size=1>

 

[byron]

<font color=blue>OK Clever Clogs. The Golden Shot is a game show. Then there's the police program Z Cars. In the news is the fact that the US is pulling out of Viet Nam.

[BrendanS]

You see Alistair? The man's a total write off if you're not discussing boats with him.

What's a real shame though, is his wife Eileen, lovely lady, very pretty. Can you imagine how she has to converse with him. She has to put everything in nautical terms to get a response, or she'd be sitting there in silence every day:

"Byron, can you pop into the chandlers on the way home and pick up a pint of milk"

"Byron, the lawn needs to be hauled out for a scrub and antifoul, it's getting too long"

"Byron, I think a hull fitting has sprung a leak, can you pop into the galley and have a look at this dripping tap"

Sad, very sad. Poor woman.

My appolagizes to bryon for thinking you were taking the p...
Thankyou BrendanS for putting me straight, so basically if i need to know anything about boats then ask Bryon, but if i want to know who the current prime minister is forget it?

[Alistairr]

I am not naming the boat 'Indiana Jones'. But i am considering nameing it 'Indiana'.....

Unless anyone else can come up with any better suggestions? EH?

[byron]

<font color=blue>I do too know who the Prime Minister is. On here it is Kim over the country it is a man called Maggie Thatcher.
