That whole stupid Banana thing started in Hawaii for those who didn't know
I cant recall the exact story but the local natives there believe that banana's on boat are bad luck.
Naturally the story spread & like a bunch of silly old women others here & abroad started believing this rubbish, mind you the banana theory old applied to Game Boats.
Mostly used as an excuse by fishermen who couldn't catch fish the idea that banana's being a curse quickly spread cause there's alot of fishermen who cant catch fish.
I have no probs with banana's on boats & often take them on boats even back when I used to fish on other peeps boats we still caught fish in fact once I even took a pinapple & allways take a pair of Coconuts
