The Name...

Some may wonder why name a boat Charlie's Pride.  Other than the obviousness of my name being Charles( I actually go by the name Chuck).  My lovely wife came up with the name.  You see,  I love country music.  Charley Pride is one of my favorite singers of country music.  As he was a little out of the norm in singing country music in his day, being black an all; I too am out of the norm being a person who dreams of living on the ocean and lives in the mid west.  I also know that there are very few people who build their own boats.  I have been called crazy by some of by friends.  One often says to me that I should buy a Sunfish and be done with it.  So... Charlie's Pride it is.  It fits.
