Where does your SBO username come from???

[Outeast]

Many New Yorker's head "outeast" for weekends and to recharge. This refers to the North and South Forks of Long Island east of Riverhead. It's a different world Outeast with beautiful beaches, great restaurants & wineries and offers some of the best cruising grounds on the east coast. Since retiring I live in SW FL but still spend summers "outeast" sailing our boat out of Greenport, NY.

[Gudenuph]

Gudenuph is a whimsical spelling of "Good Enough" to reflect a Scandinavian heritage.
The name itself stems from the frugal background of the 'Great Depression' of the '30s and an engineering training. A project design is good enough only if it satisfies all of its requirements including appropriate considerations of safety factor and aesthetics.
Thus any more than that is 'art' or a waste of resources. This is in no way a slam on art! My projects try to incorporate a good measure of art because making me feel good is one of the requirements!
Gudenuph does that.

[skienuff]

Skienuff is my handle from way back in the Compuserve and Erols internet days. It's still my email name. It comes from a time when I was in much better shape and was obsessed with skiing. I haven't ski'd in years, but will ride a snowboard now and then. My latest obsession has moved to sailing but I reckon "Sailenuff" is already spoken for.

[Zed]

ZED

I got tired of everyone who used Google gmail using my real name because it showed up with my email address in their database and was automatically attached. So I changed my gmail account from my real name to a totally made up name of ZED PASSWAY. Now everyone knows me as Zed Passway because Google thinks my real name is Zed Passway.

So here and there I use Zed Passway.

 

[EnginesForward]

I served on as an Engineman on Diesel Submarines in the forward engine room.

All great stories which I have enjoyed reading. Jackdaw, is that a Beneteau 235? Not sure but very clean and well maintained boat sir.

However, the question of how SBO came about, PHIL HERRING IS NOW ORDERED TO TELL US OR WE WILL GET KERMIT WITH HIS SWASHBUCKLING SWORD AFTER YOU.

This old thread, back from the dead! Yes Dave a First 235. I take it as a matter of importance to maintain boats in better-than-new condition. Every time something fails or gets old/worn, its replacement is an upgrade. I'm a good person to by a boat from!

 

[keys please]

Good stories all....and a good read.
Can’t believe I only now found this thread….
I used to spend a lot of time in the Florida keys, but now winter in SW Florida and summer up north, lake of the Woods..... My sail boat does whisper to me “take me to the Keys Please” honest ….. I hear it and must obey……

Yep. The majority of my custom uke customers have wanted koa over the years, as that is the traditional wood that they were constructed from in Hawaii (it's also lovely to look at).

I'm mostly retired now. Haven't taken a new order in several years, but I'm still finishing up the last few from my previous three-year backlog of orders.

I guess I can't hid. My name is my name. Been on this site since almost before I invented the web.. Phil and I go waaaaay back...
First computer, net presence was 300 baud, then 1200 (almost died at the speed) then came 9600. Things just kept getting faster. When I retired, I was using a high end Sun Microsystems at 10Gbit to the desktop... The thrill of speed...

Kermit, I like frog legs for lunch with a nice beer....

Makes me think of millions of frogs on tiny crutches. Sheesh.

Jackdaw,

I saw the picture of your boat and it was well kept. I appreciate those who do keep their boats up and you do and that you get the Atta A Boy Award from me. Wish we did not live so far as we could exchange war stories. Again, your boat is well maintained.

Jack,

Great sailing pic pal.

Years ago, my boating friends after seeing the movie "Captain Ron" w/ Kurt Russell started to use this as a moniker for me based on my personality(?).................I guess.

I can only say that I am NOT of the marina or sailing club ilk but rather, a pirate @ heart with alot of neo-piratic friends. Would you introduce me to your sister........., If I were you, I think KNOT!
