Re-naming ceremony of Aquarius to Aros Mear.

On December 22nd we had our re-naming ceremony for the boat from Aquarius to Aros Mear.
We had a great celebration and David made his address to Poseidon, The Greek god of the Seas, and the four Winds and asked for blessings.

A stone belonging to Aquarius was sent to the bottom of the sea, and champagne was poured from east to west, north to south, and the other way as well. It was all done very formally.
