In Brama Fear, he sings about having a Boston Whaler. I also recall reading this in some other book.
What was the name of his boat?

Re: What was the name of his Boston Whaler?
Good question. We know from several sources
(Jimmy Buffett Scrapbook; Come Monday Video; song lyrics Brahma Fear)
that he had both a Boston Whaler and an old truck dubbed "God's Own Truck"
from those early daze in Key West ... but I've never heard him reference
the name of that Boston Whaler.
Here's the original "Come Monday" video
as re-released on from "Tales From Margaritavision"
with pictures of both the boat and the truck
(and also a very hot looker named Jane).

Given the awesome names he has had for his other boats as well as for his planes, my guess is he had a name for what appears to have been his first boat.
