Ohio Navy is a "public domain" type of boating cultural lore or, concept, that began during the late 1950's and early 1960's when the manmade Lake Cumberland was filled and born. It became very noticeable that many, many, many people from Ohio were bringing their boats to the new Lake Cumberland.
To best understand the boating culture of the "Ohio Navy", you must close your eyes and imagine the following vision:
It is the late 1950's.
* Put yourself at the border of Ohio and Kentucky.
* You notice a sudden major increase of boats being pulled from Ohio to Kentucky every weekend.
* There are traffic jams on two lane highways, of cars pulling boats
* Businesses and residents surrounding the new Lake Cumberland began calling these boating enthusists, "the Ohio
Navy".
* Motel and restaurant billboards read, "Welcome Ohio Navy".

All correct if Timmy was Navy watering—because Timmy didn’t know there was a project at all.

Get the navimug. A tongue and cheek comment used to pick fun of your yuppie friends. A member of the Raleigh navy tends to have the best of everything but has no idea how to use what they have. They have the finest imported rifles but can’t hit the broad side of a barn. They drive a Range Rover but have never had mud on it. They have 4wd but it’s never been engaged. They have the finest boats but can’t back straight down a boat ramp. They have no idea how to fish but only catch fish when they charter a boat and someone hooks the fish for them. Their typical attire is top to bottom PFG fishing attire, Costa sunglasses, and boat shoes. Hunting they only wear Beretta or Kuiu Camo. When out on the town they always wear a fish belt with a blazer or a sweater tied around their neck like the alpha beta frat boys from Revenge of the Nerds. There are literally thousands of members of the Raleigh navy in every southern coastal town.
Aaron showed up in his spotless Range Rover with a rifle made by Holland & Holland to go hunting. He was very sad that we didn’t offer a concierge and wine and cheese at check in. He was clearly a member of the Raleigh Navy.
