Heh, no. I think it might say house or barn on it.

You know how you get a sort of mild "texture" when you roll paint on a smooth surface? I got that on Jaunty and I kinda like the way it looks. I mean, it's not very noticeable at all unless you look closely. I tell people that's like the dimples on a golf ball, makes the boat have less laminar flow so it's faster with better fuel economy. But I tell them it also foils the surface tension of the water, too, so the boat actually sits a little bit deeper in the water........

Of course, I also used tell folks my Subaru Forester had five wheel drive 'cuz it was all wheel drive for four and then the back axle had limited slip differential so that added one more drive wheel.
