Sapphire, Its not your vision that is blurry, its the result of a lot of cropping of a picture with not much pixel density
Well, don't have a pic of the name, but when I built my Cross 35, I named her Different Drummer. From the quote by Thoreau
If a man does not keep pace with his companions
Perhaps it is because he marches to the beat of a different drummer
let him step to the music he hears, however measured or far away
always sort of applied to me
Here was launch day

Don’t know why you named her, but I previously posted, without explaining why, that my wife had an Ensign named Blue Moon. When she bought her, she named it with the thought that she might win a race once in a Blue Moon - the Ensign fleet here in Newport was very competitive.
Now the part of the story she doesn’t like me to relate,
she and her all female crew won an Ensign National race ( not allowed to say how many years ago) AND are still the only all female crew to do this.
Yes, I admit she is still better at proper sail trim - even though we are now old cruisers
We named our first boat Rescuer after we used it to help save a man from drowning.
We’ve re-used that name on boats since, now up to #4.

The picture was taken right after we'd replaced the cove stripe and added the name. Latin for Hunter.
