    I know we discussed the answers here a long time ago but i have a bad case of 'sometimers' (rather than alzheimers): Shabah means 'ghost', Barchetta means 'little boat' in Italian, Davanti i think meant 'ahead of' and i think Talari meant 'wind' but i just cant remember..

    I'm pretty sure the word "Talari" refers to a scout or watch person......

    A "Barchetta" is a word used to describe an open top 2 seater Italian sports car...

    "Davanti" as Mikey says is to go ahead/ride up front (which is ironic as you'd think it would be referring to a Bow rider) Maybe referring to the forward cuddy???
    again Italian...

    As expressed to me (and a room full of dealers) by Jimmy Fulks, Talari meant "Wing'd Warrior", Shabah was Arabic and meant "Night Ghost" and Barchetta was "Little Tub". Sorry, I don't remember Davanti, tho any guess would do fine.. I'm not sure where these names came from but I always thought they came from Greek or Roman origins..... or so.. Jimmy said that the nomads in the middle east called the invisable F-117 which flew at night , the Shabah. Hense, the name for his boat..
