Anybody want to guess at the why of my username?

But because you're trolling for stories:
My boat is called Fishalot II, (my 2nd SeaCraft Seafari with that name), because at the end of the day as I was closing the marina and getting ready to head out fishing, a regular customer once asked me if caught a lot of fish on my frequent fishing trips. I replied, "No, I don't catch a lot, I just fish a lot".

When I came to work two days later, the head forklift operator at the marina I managed had had "Fishalot" professionally painted on the side of my 20' SeaCraft Seafari, and "The GEEK" painted on the side of my 34' Scarab Raider.

Laughing, I literally picked him up and threw him off the dock into the ICW. But I kept both boat names where they were.
