Such a shame they spelt it wrong…

Or perhaps "spelled"

Perhaps, but as the OED allows either, why quibble?

 

[Amulet]

Probably the spelling is evidence in support of the diagnosis.

There's a boat in Beaulieu marina called "something of Bealieu"...

Well I suppose it is something of it. Just not all of it

And I'll tell you what, they really aren't bad at all...

It's probably not what most on here would call a criusing boat though...

From memory an Elan or a Hanse?

Or maybe an Enla or a Hasne?

but what is wrong is "wrong". That is an adjective. The adverb is "wrongly". I am surprised Nigel missed that.

I thought it was a HOD. But google suggests I might be wrong... Know I've seen it, and been beaten by it, but the boat I thought it was it isn't! This is going to bug me.....

So am I! I guess I didn't get that far.

Incorrectly would be even better.
