What's in a name? What's in a ship's name? An ancient Babylonian text says: "Openings to the water I stopped; I searched for cracks and the wanting parts I fixed: Three sari of bitumen I poured over the outside; To the gods I caused oxen to be sacrificed." Each week we list ships, by name, who's crews have enrolled them in Amver. That is the most unique feature of Amver. We hope you will elect to join as well. If you do, we'll list your ship as well.Help us welcome the latest ships.
