I haven't kept up with all of the conversations, I'm sorry to say, and I don't know who the new name "Phish Bait" is for - ofMagog?

Billie, Bait was 'Shark Bait,' ofMagog's cat aboard the vessel, described as a dock stowaway in the past with one ear and definite survival skills!
Forgetting just who it was, someone recently suggested we dangle Bait overboard by the tail, this placing in my phine mind the idea he/she should be redesignated 'PHISH Bait' as an appropriate moniker.
Bait thus will forever be a reminder of our dear CHIEF 'navigator,' who loved to phish when he was not taking us among icebergs instead of tropical waters...

OfMagog is off in the boonies with some Boy Scouts and friends doing repairs of equpment in their jungle canopy workshop.
While we were docked in the Falklands a couple of years ago a ragged, about two year old cat wandered aboard. He had one ear almost chewed off and looked like he had been in many fights. We took him to a vet there and got him in good shape. ofMagog named him "Shark Bait," said he was the ugliest cat on the planet (possibly true!), told him he would toss him to the sharks if he misbehaved, and since has spoiled him rotten.
Per recommendation of LadyX in memory of CHIEF negotiator, Bait's name has been officially changed to "Phish Bait" since CHIEF often told us how much he enjoyed 'phishing' over 'phighting.'
