It is also the name of his boat and it is also his daughters name "Alexa", I met him at Gifford marine and found this out when he was shooting some film for a show that aired briefly, it focused on his "new" old boat and the advancements he made on it and the companies involved in the project. The show he was doing at the time he was talking about his bow thrusters.
