Way back in time, men built boats for fishing, There were no sports, like boat racing, sailing for fun, water skiing or taking your best girl for a ride on a pond in the park. Most boats were built to get food from the seas. This builder of boats was named, D. Jones and his boat was being built out of gum wood, because this wood was thought to stick together better than other woods and it wouldn’t leak. Davie was a single man and courting several ladies, so he could select the best one to be his wife.
The first one was so big and fat, the boat would not stay afloat when she got into it. It would sink to the bottom of the pond which was only a few feet deep, On the other hand, she couldn’t sink as she was the best floating device that could be found. But she was just too fat and she looked like she would eat anything and everything in sight.
His next choice was younger girl and so thin, she looked as if she would break if Davie put his arms around her. That and those giggle of hers, of which she was always doing, was enough to drive a sane man crazy and a crazy man deep into the ground.
His next choice would be the prettiest girl in the village, Every man around was trying to court her. She spent all of her time primping and making herself look good. No one knew if she could cook or keep house or do anything domestic. He decided to pass on her.
Back then, the only way to get rid of a wife, was if she died. Or she could be stoned to death, but first the church would have to put a curse on her and get the people worked up enough and mad enough to say she should be stoned to death. But this woman was the prettiest woman around and a woman like her, needed to be preserved, as there were very few to be found.
So, not knowing if she would be a good wife or not, Davie didn’t want to take a chance.
Dave met an old ship captain by the name of Ahab. It was said that he was swallowed by a whale and lived there, inside the whale for many years. One day Ahab built a fire in side the whale and this made the big old whale sneeze and cough, and this expelled old Ahab from inside the whale.
Well, Old Ahab had several daughters and Ahab told Davie, if he was to marry one of his daughters, He would tell Davie where to find fortunes in treasuries that lay on the bottom of the seas.
One day, Davie went to Captain Ahab’s house and what he saw there, turned Davie into stone. As the stone cooled, it cracked into many small pieces. The small pieces would lay there on the ground for decades until a small piece of that stone, caught the eye of a young lady and she picked it up. She took the small piece to the fountain and washed it. The stone began to shin, ever so bright, and it became larger and larger and it turned into a very handsome older man. It was Davie but he had aged some.
As Davie stood there, remembering how things once looked, than he remembered that he once had a business of building boats. Another man who was building a very large boat and it’s purpose was to save the lives of as many people that he could. It was said that there was going to be a great flood and the earth would be cleansed of all its sins.
Davie Jones thought he would like to see some this world before it was all destroyed. So he set about building his own boat that would let him see the world and when that flood came, it would save his life. He called it a Star craft and his company became a very large and best known boat builders around the world.

After the rain stopped and land once again appeared. Old Noby Dick ( the whale) searched and searched all the oceans for old Ahab, but he never found him.
Davie was still alive and he had found the woman that had wanted, they married and had many children. That big boat was stranded on the top of a mountain and it is said, that it is still there.
Today, Davies company is having problems with the IRS and Davie is going to take them to court. He doesn’t know it yet, but He can’t win !
