Our boats original name was Cats Meow and since we are not really cat people the name had to go. It took a bit of time to find a name that we felt was right for us. We wanted something that we could relate to and that meant something to us. Joyce as a small child liked to run around with very little on other than a smile and her Aunt nick named her Rose Lee after Gypsy Rose Lee the Burlesque star. It seemed right so that was that. Rose Lee it is.

Launch day finally arrived with a beautiful spring day Rose Lee went in the water with out a hitch. We had lots of friends and observers on hand for the big day (it was like a little parade as the travel lift carried her down to the water:). We thought it best not to offend any of the gods so a proper de-naming and re-naming ceremony was was held that evening. This was mentioned to a few friends old and new but we were quite surprised by the size of the crowd that showed up, it looked like Saturday afternoon at the Annapolis Boat Show. There were about 50 people on the dock and 30 on the boat, luckily we were prepared with lots of champagne (trust me no gods were offended that day).
