This rib was named Heddlu Cwch.

Now, before the Gaelics go all dewy eyed and romantic, it translates as Police Boat.

Mine - Liberum or independent.

as distinct from being dependent on local charters etc.

One local operator has little integrity about him, and which I used to use some-what and got so dissapointed with him that I decided the only way I could be independent was to get my own suitable boat.

So she was born.

A quick google shows Asen as 'kept'
But if you use one of the translator's RIB in Welsh is 'asen', 'eisen', 'hasen', 'heisen' so feck knows mate.

Still think naming it after all those dogs you got would be better.

I did have a photo on facebook of the Olde Tyme Bulldogs I had bred. I only kept one if these and the rest went to good homes.
