Steve-

Steady, steady, [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] The name has some history. I will share it so here it goes:

Ever since I was wee little one I was aboard a sailboat. My folks always had one, still do. Through my teens and twenties I raced sailboats and taight sailing all over the place, from Holland to Lake erie. I was a sailing nut.

The name of my folks boat was/is PRYDE. Their first boat was green and they were Boston Celtics nuts so Pride is was, but to be different, spelled with a "Y".

I became hooked, no pun intended, to fishing and need a name for my boat so being a traitor from sailing and being a selling profesional, TRAYDER seemed to fit I stole the "Y" from my folks and it seemed to stay.

As for the "other" boat I have a feeling it will get much less use after I finish the 20.
