Barbados Bob was on a diplomatic journey to the United States from his home in the Caribbean.  His small ship sailed along idyllically on a beautiful moonlit night.  Suddenly the sky darkened and the ship was unexpectedly caught in a squall.  Barbados Bob was swept off the top deck by a mighty wave into the sea.  All through the night his faithful crew searched for him to no avail.  Little did they know the Barbados Bob had been rescued by a Mermaid and brought to the shores of Cape Cod.  As she dropped him off safely on the shore she whispered in his ear, "You shall open a Raw Bar and sell the freshest seafood in the land."
