Paper... Fish?

From time to time, the employees at Paper Fish get asked about their business name. It's perfectly natural, then, to ask "What is the name 'Paper Fish' all about?"

Peter, owner/operater, had a Dutchcraft sailboat at one time named "Poisson De Papier" (which translates to "Paper Fish") that sailed the waters of Sarasota, Florida. Peter had many high sea adventures on the craft.

One day, while driving, Peter was trying to think of a name for his new printing business. With a burst of laughter, he decided that he had so much fun on his boat that it would be the perfect name for his company.

And with that, Paper Fish was born.
