Once our ship looks ship-shape, it's time to test the motor. There's nothing worse than having the official launching, and the motor won't start. Hoses are hooked up to the motor, water flows everywhere, and the key is turned. After a battery boost, she starts. The propeller turns and the dog barks. The life jackets and paddles are retrieved from the attic, and the water skis are dusted off. She's ready for the river. Of course all that work doesn't end there. Every few days all summer long, the same procedures have to be repeated. We can't go for even a short cruise, without the Skipper seeking the Windex bottle or the upholstery cleaner. Of course, all that work isn't the hardest part of being•a boat owner. I think the toughest job a boat owner faces is coming up with just the right name for his craft. There are some very ingenious names on boats out there. Just cruis- ing through Port Franks can give you some good laughs by reading names on boats. Often, they leave you wondering what the story is behind the name. Among my favourites are "Grounds for Divorce" (do you sup- pose they ever got back together Area ladies attend retreat London Conference United Church women sponsored a Women's Retreat Weekend at Westminster College, London, on May 30 to June 1.

By Mary Alderson, • This is the third boat we've owne ' The first two were no -names, and 1 think they resented it. The first boat came with the house when we bought it. We nicknamed it The Tub, because it was large and white, and resembl- ed an old-fashioned bath tub. We found out what it was like to be tow- ed home on several occasions. Our se- cond boat was sleek, orange and black and very fast. We talked about calling her Tiger. But we ended up just calling her The Baja, which was her make. We learned that sleek, last boats look good, but don't offer very smooth rides in Lake Huron's rough waters. We decided to call our present boat Shampoo. I thought we picked the name because of Warren Beatty's movie, and at the time it sounded cat- chy. My hairdresser -husband says we picked the name because he had to do a lot of Shampoos to buy it. A few years ago I was lucky enough to win a small row boat. We named her Cream Rinse and docked her next to Shampoo. Actually, the name Shampoo took on a whole new meaning when our ac- countant saw it on the back of our boat. "I just hope 1.don't find a $15,000 expenditure for shampoo on your books," he said.
