Do You Have a Boat Mascot?

Ours does now. Wife loves turtles, 12 year old son likes pirate hats.

Presenting "Skipper Turtle".

According to the legend cooked up by my kids this weekend he must be at the center of the dash while the boat is in use.

Yes. We have a crocheted RNLI skipper that the crew of the RNLI 47' motor lifeboat William Street gave us after i went on a training mision with them on Morcambe Bay in England.. We keep it in the starbord pilothouse window in front of the electronics console. The photo is not ours but a similar one.
