Got a name for your boat?

[Wishin2BFishin]

I've owned my boat since 1984 and just recently came up with a name for it. It's a 1978 Penn Yan cuddy cabin 20 feet long. Was racking my brain trying to come up with a good name for it and while I was taking my buddy for a real fast ride he said "boy is this a bad penny" and the name just stuck. So "Bad Penny" it is. One of my other buddies is a plumber and named his 1964 wooden Egg Harbor "Gray Waters" his name is Pete Gray and the waste water from a sink is called "gray water" so I guess this fits well. Another buddy of mine has a 30 foot wooden 1966 Chris Craft that has the original chevy engines that always has troubles keeping it running so he named his boat "Troubled waters". Anyone have any funny names for their boats as well? Nameing a boat is not so easy to do is it?

Yes I do!!! I have a 2003 Alumacraft 175 Magum CS. I name her Tank.

I only have little 14 ft. and she don't have a name.(yet) But when cruising through the Wabasha Marina I see a few. Some like "Past Tents" or "Her Idea". A lot more but I got a case of C.R.S. right now.

I named mine "Prop Killer".

[mtreno]

thats funny i have a bayliner (dads boat) named prop killer. dad had a hard time making the choice if he should change my name to prop killer or just name the boat that. ended up being the boat........

[Wishin2BFishin]

That's funny! Those rocks win everytime don't they???

[Tom Linderholm]

A friend named his "Fish Pimp"

[dogfishHUNTER]

Mine is the MisAdventure to describle the event that happened when my wife went on her maiden voyage in the boat. My plug loosened and fell out about an hour and a half into our trip, luckily I did have an extra plug along but I didn't get it in before water was seeping up through the floor of the boat. It took 1/2 hour before the bilge pump emptied the H20 contents in the bilge. That is why she is named MisAdventure and not Miss Aventure.

Take care!

I named mine "Snortin Norton" after my first huntin dog. He had a habit of snortin at you when he was disgusted or p.o.'d.

el drifter. I had a ford bronco II named el bronco, then I bought a tahoe named el tahoe. When I got the boat, it sortta just adopted the name.

Just bought a Tracker Pro Deep V 17 a few weeks ago. My wife and I were having trouble with figuring out a name, but it came to me one evening while I was a little homesick for Minnesota. We named it "Uf-Dah!"

[gerty]

Had a friend who was a pastor. He named his the "Holy Troller". I thought that was great!

Wishin2BFishin this is a great topic...thank you.

So' let's hear it more.....

[Farley]

I have a 10 foot Lund duck boat that on the bottom we spraypainted "Mallard Raper". It's gotten a few laughs, more gasps though.

[icehousebob]

I saw a couple of big ones on Tonka that had good names. One was PLAN B. I wonder what plan A was. The other was a big cruiser that had KID'S INHERITANCE across the stern.

I spotted one in prescott a few months back named the crabby dingy

[Northlander]

I dont have a name for mine but just go by "Northlander" when on the Marine Band. I figure if I go by another name nobody would have a clue who I was. Maybe thats a good thing?

[CrappieJohn]

I call mine the boat.

[united jigsticker]

I call mine "da' Crappie Killer"

Of course, El Crappie Killer might fit....

DUH Croppy Kill Her

duhhh uh gee wally.....

[Slyster]

I guess I too named mine "The Boat"... and apparently my wife has named it "The Stupid Boat"

[fishnhooks]

CrappieTom,

That name is really unique. I kind-of like it. I wish I would have thought of that name for my boat.

That just cracked me up!

I now see the Slyster has that too, that's great!

"hooks"
