Understanding the name Shady Lady
Shady means moraly degenerated and Lady means a fine and true lady. Some yachtsmen – we used to be among them ourselves – finds that the Bavaria Yacht Works and the ships they build are somewhat degenerated. Having gotten to know her, we find this ship a very fine lady. We do however admit that we once had a different view on the ships built by Bavaria Yacht Works. This is why we named her Shady Lady.
