I should have known stinky would show up and put a whole new spin on this one. Next thing you know he'll have a picture of him in the thong demonstarting how he got his name. As for mine it started back in school. My actual name is Ferman and kids would call fermanator in school to make fun of me, so I started calling myself The fermanator and it stuck for most all of my online stuff. I try to keep my name universal for everything in the net world.

The first year that I owned my v-20 and it was sitting in on the trailer in my yard, I had a friend that always said the it would be the perfect "jetty fishing machine". After reviving it with a new transom, wiring and engine I proceeded installing a stereo system that was worth the value of the boat, so me and my wife came up with the "Jetty Rocker". Now are crowd don't ask if we are going on the river, the ask if we are going "Jetty Rockin'" .

Well, our last name is Crews and we absolutely LOVE being down in the islands. And we were both born and raised in the "South". We actually coined the name when we chartered a 38' sail-cat bare boat one year. We were sitting in the cockpit hanging on a mooring watching the sun go down in White Bay on Jost Van Dyke (BVI) and my wife just looks at me and says...we're "Southern 'Crews'ers".

I have done several bareboat cruises in the Virgin Islands and I also absolutely love it. Perhaps the most bittersweet trip we did was with my Mom, Dad, two brothers and sister. My Dad was dying of cancer but wanted to do one last trip. We had a great family time and Dad enjoyed the heck out of his last voyage despite his suffering. He died two weeks later. Ironically, the name of our boat that trip (45' Island Packet) was "Swan Song."

Yeah, if I could find a job down there, I wouldn't be up here! Sorry about your father, but man, what a way to celebrate his life one last time! I want my ashes to be spread down there. I feel like that's where my soul belongs.
