Lady Louise

Ships and boats fascinate me perhaps only second to airplanes.  This particular beauty was docked in Apalachicola, FL.   I loved her name, the “Lady Louise,”   while I am sure she was named for a famous “Louise”   such as Lady Louise Windsor; however, Louise is a name often repeated among women in my family…  so I immediately associated it with them.

The Lady Louise was built by Landry Boat Works in Bayou LaBatre, Al in 1978. her frames are of cypress, her planking is mahogony. Her name comes from her captain's wife, who's name is Louise...
