The "thing" is a floatplane. That fact and its definition never change. The model number and name of this particular floatplane is DHC-2 Beaver.

There are a whole lot of companies that make trawlers (hint--Ocean Alexander isn't one of them) and I suspect they give their vessels model numbers or names. But if they are fishing vessels that use trawl gear, regardless of the make and model names, they are all trawlers.

Very, very basic stuff Walt. You should know this given the impressive things you've accomplished in your life.
Wifey B: Have you always enjoyed being demeaning and condescending to others or is that a recent thing with you?

Or is this your idea of humor and you're just pranking the board?
