Irish Rover or Mean Fiddler (which)

frankdeegan · 29-06-2008, 02:58

Hi Guy's, I'm new to this site and would like some feed back on a LITTLE idea I (we) have about living the dream......come next April, we are renting out our house in Ireland and getting a bigger live aboard, looking at a 62"ft (fixer upper) which can sleep 12. We plan to 1st sail to the med and were going to charter to (an get this) TRADITIONAL IRISH MUSIC PLAYERS or as we call them "diddlie ideliers". They fly out to us and we arrange venues for them as we hop and skip our way slowly through the med and beyond.. Having approached some of the diddler's they thought the idea was a winner. they make money playing in bars and clubs and we make money putting them up..Now the next question??? "what to call the boat". The Irish rover or The Mean Fiddler.. any Idea's out their.. let me know please.. Thanks Guys.

If they haven't sailed before maybe "Fiddlers Green" would be more appropriate

Thanks Pelagic, I've being sailing for over 20 years and being around this planet 6 times, but your right..what about "green fiddlers", "fiddlers elbow". keep them coming
