    And the winners are......
    (drumroll, please)

    Logos with "Panthalassa". Great name for a boat! Far better than anything I could have come up with!!

    Second prize goes to Niamh with "General Chat".
    Since I have decided that I don't want to live all alone on this big boat, I'm going to get a cat. His/her name will be General Chat. I will pronounce Chat in the French way (like shot or the past tense of poop) since that is the way you say/spell cat in French.

    Thank you everybody for all of the marvelous suggestions!!

    General Chat is actually a catchy name for a cat bib! Good choice on the boats name!

    Cool names Bib! For a cat AND a boat.

    can anybody help me decide on a cool name for my dad's boat?

    I was thinking on something like Le Arc-en-Ciel or the Prydwynn
    Shall these bones live?

    Oh, Bib! it just gets closer and closer every day and I have a nervous stomach for you. It just sounds like such a huge thing to do- the kind of thing people only talk about doing- I'm just about scared to death for you. I know you are a sailor and you may not be afraid, but I am. It it will seem that you are so far away. The more I think about it the more I worry. And all of that water- every way you look water. I don't even put my face in the shower spray. I actually keep a dry wash cloth to dry my face in the shower if it accidentally gets wet. Knowing you'll have a cat does make me feel better for some reason, like everything will be fine with the General on board.
