Sorry, at boat show, no time to post today

SoSuMi already

Imagine a thick New York accent, “So sue me, already.” Maybe the whole thought is, “Hey, pissed off cause I can afford to keep this cherry Bunker & Ellis as shiny as a violin? So sue me!” Sorry, no electronics today, folks, but another in a continuing series on catchy boat names. Have a great weekend (and if possible do drop by the fabulous Maine, Boats, Homes and Harbors Show.)

Please don't regard him as an "expert"; he's getting quite old and thinks that "fadiddling fumble-putz" is a more accurate description.

Hello, I have extensive records on Bunker and Ellis boats, but have never seen this one. Could you please tell me anything you know about it? Thanks, Willie Granston

I don’t know much, Willie, but think the boat lives on Islesboro and is probably taken care of by Pendleton Yacht Yard, who are Bunker & Ellis experts:

What are the odds Ben? The name does have an origin that might as well be the same. An Apple dude might be the owner? I learn something new every day. Thanks http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sosumi
