Hey, catching up on the thread and I saw in your post that they were going to name the boat cracker after Anna's nickname for Daniel. I lived in the Virgin Islands for a lot of years and in the caribbean , cracker is a derogatory name blacks call whites...as in whip cracker...slave master...reminded me of HKS!

I never knew where that term came from..whip cracker. Wow thanks for posting this. When I first heard the name of the boat that's what I thought she named it for.
