Can we come to some kind of consensus that the "U" word and for sure the "P" word shall not be used to describe boats? HUH?
"I'm guilty, your Honor!" Once upon a time I used the "P" word to call attention to a lovely boat. I saw the error of my ways after Elisabeth Grace came to be mine. She is, afterall, named for my two granddaughters. I would hate to open a thread on the Forum titled "Boat Porn" and see my boat.
The same can be said of Ugly boat. "Guilty, your Honor." I was all too eager to post a picture of a Bolger Navigator on the now deleted thread. Shame on me! I had posted the same picture earlier as an exampe of an unseaworthy cabin. I still believe that to be true if the boat were to venture into big water.
By all means, post pictures and discuss beautiful, seaworthy, unsafe, unsuitable for some conditions, unseaworthy, good, bad, homely, ill concieved, poorly built, superbly built, "not to my taste", etc., etc., etc. boats.
Let's leave the "P" word and the "U" word to the film industry. OK? smile.gif
