Shaniki turns into Binki.

Shaniki asked to have his name changed so now Shanika is Binki.  Binki and Kadizzle buzzed to Minot to look at a motorcycle.  Lately we have been on a binge to buy a motorcycle.  The NC700 by Honda is just a little too zippy for old 70 year old guys so we gave up and decided to go sailing.  Stoupini met us but decided to sail on his ship Over The Edge.  So Sovereign and Over The Edge headed to Mallard Island.  Since the Sovereign is do fast Stroupini suggested we take the most circumlocutous ( after some research it turns out that word should be circuitous) route possible. In the course of our wandering we came across the ship Point B.  Kadizzled hailed the new owner Matt and suggested he join us for the evening at Mallard Island.  After a nice sail all three boats tied to the shore in a cove.   We had a wonderful evening cooking on the grill singing and drinking.  Matt had a very nice guitar, and Stroupini, Binki, and Matt all picked out some nice tunes.  Stoupini and Kadizzle made up a love ballad to our imaginary love Michelle.  At long last we went to sleep and awoke to coffee and a fine morning.

Getting back to port was going to be a breeze, a very strong breeze.   Binki and Kadizzle fought it our with some water over the rail and some long hard tacks.  Stroupini just motored back into the large waves.  Back at the dock we cooked up some flap jacks and eggs.  All is well that ends well.
