Some time ago I came across a book that had hundreds of salty names for a boat plus the history or legend behind the name. Can't rember the name of the book or locate it-Anyone have a name, author, and publisher?

I thought I saw that through BoatUS. They have a database of all the names they've made transfer graphics for. I prefer to come up with my own names (I'm on boat no. 6, and holding!). My current boat name is Mintaka, which I thought nobody else had used. After it was documented I read an article in Cruising World. The subject isn't important but I'm sure you can guess the name of the boat featured in the article.
