NMBROOK Posted December 1, 2013 Share #2101 Posted December 1, 2013 Funnily enough I did wonder whether someone would call a trawler 'babe magnet' as it fits with the clues.Unfortunately my search revealed nothing,some rather unusual pics but no trawler.My brain has reached meltdown looking at pics,I will have another look tomorrow Kind Regards Nigel P.S. Eamonn,I might be wrong,but I have a feeling you won't find maple syrup in the name,just a hunch Jay 1 and egkb 2 Quote Currently working on Royal Caroline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
egkb Posted December 1, 2013 Share #2102 Posted December 1, 2013 (edited) I changed direction literally from North to South.. perhaps you mean change direction mentally.. ie Poles as in Poland perhaps (boat does have a somewhat Baltic look about it) ? Dang, Nigel that's 3 hours wasted looking for fishing boats with Maple Syrup in the name! See ye tomorrow folks Eamonn Edit: had a last look (kept thinking along original lines ie Pole = North Pole = Artic, add Canada & Women and you get High Canadian Latitudes and I think I've found her! or at least something darn close Is it Calanus ?

Jay 1 Posted December 1, 2013 Share #2103 Posted December 1, 2013 You're spot on with the South direction! Now consider the 2 other clues in relation to about 45 years after Amundsen... Jay Quote Current Build: Ariel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
egkb Posted December 1, 2013 Share #2104 Posted December 1, 2013 Is it not the Calanus? looks a lot like her :) Eamonn Can't find any history of the boat mind you (bit late over here) Jay 1 1 Quote Current Build : HM Schooner Ballahoo In the Pipeline : HM Cutter Sherbourne, HM Mortar Convulsion, Emma C Berry & C18th English Longboat..

NMBROOK Posted December 1, 2013 Share #2106 Posted December 1, 2013 I can't even begin to imagine how you got that Eamonn I am getting my answer in first The Arklow pedalo Kind Regards Nigel ps I was right though,no Maple Syrup,you wouldn't have got it without my help egkb and Jay 1 2 Quote Currently working on Royal Caroline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
egkb Posted December 1, 2013 Share #2107 Posted December 1, 2013 True, I couldn't have done it without your help Nigel.. Maple Syrup ! boy was I on the wrong tack there... How I arrived at the boats name is in the edit to my post over-leaf, yup at almost 2 in the morning!! Thanks for the info link Jay, I like that little boats have a great history too. My next ship will give you a laugh when you get to its name... that's the only hint you are getting.. tis a good hint too judged by our last few posts!

egkb Posted December 1, 2013 Share #2111 Posted December 1, 2013 I know I said no more hints guys but this is just to say that ye both already have half the ships name!! Am actually laughing myself at just how close ye both are without realising.. Just eliminate till you get to the 'bit' mentioned in both posts (and my own from Jays 'Photo Question' earlier) When ye find the Word in common the race will be on to see who puts it all together first !

egkb Posted December 2, 2013 Share #2115 Posted December 2, 2013 That's the Bunny !... I thought of her last night when I was joking about Maple, and said to myself that if I win this one she'd be my question. When I read the posts from Jay and yourself where ye both said Maple I actually laughed out loud! (LOL 'd in fact) Well Done and over to you (btw there is no Arklow Maple) Eamonn Jay 1 and NMBROOK 2 Quote Current Build : HM Schooner Ballahoo In the Pipeline : HM Cutter Sherbourne, HM Mortar Convulsion, Emma C Berry & C18th English Longboat..
