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?

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

    But I like it.

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

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