Can't help with a name though, I've named the last three 'Little Wing' and probably will the next.

The design however, must be pretty environmentally friendly to sneak up on ducks, as perverse as that may sound.<br /><br />Brandon, I'm afraid Pumpkinseed is a pretty silly sounding name, though I understand you mean it's more than a little melonseed. I've been considering naming her after a duck of some species and just possibly, Barry has scored again. (Though it seems wrong for all the points, in all categories, to go to the same person...).dorymanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16077373149267825091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007838299911865964.post-88555086356072953192013-07-12T07:39:30.185-07:002013-07-12T07:39:30.185-07:00I think the duck thing is a dead end, although I l...I think the duck thing is a dead end, although I like "Wigeon" because it's fun to say. I think ducks in general are too goofy-looking to deserve a place on the transom of a good-looking boat.<br /><br />How about Pumpkin Seed; bigger than a melon seed, but the same shape.<br /><br />Looks good Michael. I love everything about that boat. You need to treat your blog readers to some closeups of the boat's details. She looks as good up close as far away.<br /><br />BrandonBrandon Fordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17223983548272037752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007838299911865964.post-25818383020937334732013-07-11T20:46:00.317-07:002013-07-11T20:46:00.317-07:00Kinder to the ducks, at least I'm hoping so, a...Kinder to the ducks, at least I'm hoping so, and light on the environment.

Each of you shows your personality in your choices, what fun. <br />Joel, you're Quacking me up.<br />Max, you and I are quite alike - no matter what the name of my boat, it tends to be called by the designer or the design name.<br />Laingdon, "on the wing" is basically the same as "prendre la fuite". Mallard's End might require too much explanation, death for a good name. Google it and see how many pictures you find of a duck's posterior.<br />Dave, I expected a culinary reference from you...<br />Graham, you can do better than that. The melonseed doesn't even have a boom.<br />Barry, I like Widgeon, though I'm wary of getting locked into a color scheme, I often paint a boat with what ever color happens to be around. So far this is my favorite, none-the-less.<br />I'm afraid Kindly Light is lost on me...dorymanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16077373149267825091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007838299911865964.post-25099860585957247552013-07-11T19:03:44.307-07:002013-07-11T19:03:44.307-07:00And very nice job, too, Mr. D.And very nice job, too, Mr. D.EyeInHandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01673778556242947205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007838299911865964.post-28862462893047217012013-07-11T19:03:01.742-07:002013-07-11T19:03:01.742-07:00Given the lovely paint scheme, "Widgeon"...Given the lovely paint scheme, "Widgeon" seems appropriate.<br /><br />http://www.dmcphoto.com/Widgeon_B.JPG<br /><br />http://www.fws.gov/duckstamps/federal/images/2004%20Contest%20Images/Robert%20Copple%202004.jpg<br /><br />American Widgeon, if you need to provide details.EyeInHandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01673778556242947205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007838299911865964.post-18538241179414297702013-07-11T17:24:25.381-07:002013-07-11T17:24:25.381-07:00Fowl Weather?
