Story behind your V20 handle

[spareparts]

I ended up with a project 21 Pursuit, I started collecting parts to put it together, all of them being spare parts from other jobs or projects,so it got named spare parts, never finished the Pursuit, didn't have the time or the money to do it the way I wanted to so I traded it for a 17 Mitchell. The spareparts name stuck around, but the Pursuit didn't, I named the Mitchell "the turd"(it was brown and it floated), figured I would keep the spare parts name for online activities(better than the turd). Sold the Mitchell after finishing it and figured out it was too tippy for the family to walk around it, took the money and bought the V, started on it, but some how the Mckee(haven't named it yet) got in the way(its allmost finished, so back to the V)

In 1995 I was with a friend Cod fishing 30 miles out when I caught a Mako shark. Then my friends started to call me Mako Joe. When on the computer said Mako was taken all the time I changed it to Maco and my name Joe, and the rest is history

This was the first forum I had read or even joined.
Screen name was already taken. Instead of trying to come up with something else, I just used one of my wife's business's names.
Figured it would be almost impossible to have been already taken.
Japanese for camellia.

Great question Nipper. And you got some cool answers. Mine is self explainatory. I got my six pack license and first name begins with J. Nothing exciting.
Named my V20 "the Seventh Wave" because I was really into surfing and waves are rumored to come in sets of seven. The seventh wave is supposed to be the biggest and best...

[Stinky_Hooker]

I crap alot....a very "regular" fellow. I keep a bucket and toilet paper with me at all times in my truck/boat/while hunting, etc...Its not uncommon for me to drop 6 loads a day. When fishing usually 2 or 3 before even getting the boat in the water at day break.

[Road King Cole]

Well, My name is Dave Cole, I have a road king bike and have been called "old king cole", so I merged them.

I am thinking about naming my boat "Sea-King"

btw,

Somehow I had a different idea about the name "Stinky Hooker", I figured it was a fishing reference. So if I ever need to borrow a bucket, think I'll ask someone else...

[Pipe_Dream]

Pipe Dream is the name of my boat. I acquired it from the construction company that I worked for, a pipeline contractor. It was used to ferry workers and gear to a neighboring island. (In my case, it has nothing to do with smoking opium. I swear!)

A pipe dream is also "a fanciful or impossible plan or hope." Throughout my younger years I dreamed of living by the sea. Some called that a pipe dream. It came true 20 years ago. ;-)
