Sick Day Resort
How We Got Our Name
Jeffrey Bastin
My wife and I pulled into the marina parking lot on a motorcycle one day to only find a couple selling
their houseboat so they could buy motorcycles. Long story short, we traded a
motorcycle for a houseboat and don’t regret it. We then stayed up nights
discussing what to name the boat. All the names we were coming up with
ended up being really long names, and we were getting very tired so we decided
to name her “Bob” (a guy with no arms & no legs, floating in the
water). We were even going to have the decal guy put a bobber for the
“O”. Well, the next day I found out that I needed foot surgery so
that’s how it ended up being the “Sick Day Resort”.
