I'm thinking of adding a port of registration to the boat's name eg Monte Carlo or Cannes just to add a touch o' class tae ma splendid boat and get the tongues wagging yon by or Zurich which isnae a port but I read in the CA mag that you can have any place name you like ... good, eh? better than some that i can think of ...
 
Ach it ra Tabot ye ken .. better aff wi' Cumnock .. some awfie nice folks fae Drumbrochin in parteecular!
 
I've given this some thought and have come up with what I believe to be a unique solution.
We have known each other for some time now and without wishing to be rude or cause offence I would suggest the following facts are true and need therefore to be considered in offering a solution to your dilemma.
1) You are Chaotic
2) Being Virgo you like to keep returning to the same old familiar places.

This often means that in crowded anchorages for example, people stop what they are doing to cast anxious and sometimes angry glances in your direction. A relative burst of anonymity would therefore be of use to you.
In the film Goldfinger, Sean Connery aka J.Bond - James that is not Jenny you auld sorry Old letch - drove a magnificent Aston Martin DB5. You may recall the number plates were on a sort of barbeque spit so they could be rotated.
I think we could let in a similar device to your transom and so you could then choose a range of Home Ports that you'd be happy to have hailed from and use them to your advantage when revisiting a scene of former chaos.
