Anybody know for sure what 'FB' stood for on the sail of a boat of the mid-19th century?

I'm assuming it to be 'Ferry Boat'. It was cut onto a slate grave slab at Newborough church, in the vicinity of Caernarfon on the Welsh mainland.

Info much appreciated!

Not a bad view to wake up to.

Building sit either side of a small harbour filled with small boats. The ocean is visible beyond the harbour mouth. A few puffy clouds today against a blue sky.

A dramatic, moody photograph of a marina viewed through a window on a rainy day. The window is covered in large raindrops, which slightly blur and distort the scene. The image shows a long, wet walkway running alongside a modern building on the right and a long line of yachts moored on the left. The ground is slick with rainwater, with puddles reflecting the dark and cloudy sky. Patches of bright light break through the clouds, creating a high-contrast atmosphere. The tall masts of the yachts create a complex pattern of lines against the sky. In the distance, a cityscape is visible through the haze and rain.
