The Orange and Lemon Boat


Lemons and oranges are symbols of Menton - think Fête du Citron for starters. No name on this boat but perhaps it is obvious.

I've never seen the hull of a boat painted with an image in this way. Have you?

    I've never seen anything like this before, but I love it!

    Hope you're well in the South of France.

    Oliver, yes maybe that's it - publicity.

    Nope, never saw a hull with a peel! Or such appeal, ha, ha.

    But I like it.

    Not on smaller boats like this... mostly on cruise ships. I like this image.

    I wonder if they drink a lot of lemonade on that boat??

    I was in the Marine industry for years and never saw anything like this.

    Great image. With or without the fruit, I'd enjoy owning that boat in THAT location!

    Can't say that I have. I'd prefer just a name I think. This looks more like a commercial thing.

    Unusual, but why not, I guess.
    The strangest thing I ever saw on a yacht was the name "Seven long years of medical school." :)
