Few years back now, the master and commander decided that we needed to trade his boat in on a heavier one, one that would be easier on my back while blue water fishing.
The deal was, he chose the boat, the equipment needed etc, I chose the colour.... and the name.
Well I got the colour wrong, being a dark blue (suppose to be midnight blue, and if it was a metallic it probably would be) every scratch and paint chip shows like the full moon on a clear night. But the name, oh the name, what to call it? Suddenly, whilst listening to a Nickelback song, it came to me. The lyrics are actually "get your hands off this glass, last call my arse".
After a bit of stuffing around, the name was soon proudly displayed down the sides of the boat, and soon became the talking point of everyone who saw it!
From there it went on to be the team name in local fishing comps, it's abbreviation the rego number on the car, it's abreviation with the number 4 in front of it the rego number for the boat trailer, and after discovering how well known it actually is, we have applied for it to be trademarked.
This mainly came about from the last time I fuelled up the car, a gentleman came up to me and said LCMA, that's the name of your boat isn't it? Yeah, Last Cast My Arse, I proudly replied, that's the one... awesome. That and when a prominent Darwin fisherman and radio producer went into the master and commanders place of work and asked him if he was the skipper of Last Cast My Arse.... Couldn't remember his name, just that he owned the boat, the master and commander was devastated... lol
