Last night, it was made official, we christening our fair lady-Lady Puchica. Many of our good friends were made it out to the La Ceiba Shipyard for a little party. It was great to see all those who have helped us make Lady Puchica sail. We’ll have her in the water today for those who want real proof that she floats. The effect of the party is making us a bit slow this morning. Joe and Michelle-please follow la hora hondurena…see you soon! 

For those who have not spent extended time in Honduras, Puchica is a common Honduran phrase used in place of saying worse words. So some examples…

Puchica! It is raining!

Puchica! The mast broke!

Puchica! The boat has a leak!

Puchica! I just nailed my finger with a hammer again!

Puchica! The Shipyard crane is blocking my internet connection!

Puchica! Puchica! Puchica!!
