Dark Star
Named after one of my all time favorite Songs
Also another name for a black hole. All of my boats have sucked money out of my pocket like a black hole.
Also, the Northcoast logo is this 12point star, in dark red, so that had some meaning too.
I will share a funny story:
The very first time I am launching my new boat. It is early May 2006. a friend and I bring the boat down to the ramp in East Greenwich. Here is a picture at the ramp from that day:
So anyway, we drop the boat in, get the trailer parked, start to motor out, and the very first boat, and I mean FIRST boat we see.....:
I thought I had come up with a great and original name!!! GUESS NOT!
Anyway, we continued out to Sally Rocks where I caught the first bass on my boat, nothing to brag about, but a start to some great memories on the Dark Star:
