A perfect subject, beautiful colors, and good eye for composition. Of course I am wondering about the history behind this little boat - what does its name mean in English?

Petros from Greece

The history is a mysterious to me as well since I saw the subject accidentaly.
The name is interesting indeed!! has 3 parts which I will try to explain:
1. Xatzh: usually is a shortname given to everyone who visited Jerousalem and especially the jordan river
2. Alh: an east name (oriental like ali-baba)
3. Agas: was a dignitary title in the period where Greece was under Turkish habitation.
The conclusion is yours!! forgive any of my mistakes
