Boat Names

Re: Boat Names

After a quarter century in the Navy, owning a boat wasn't exactly high on my list of priorities.
One day, my girlfriend mentioned that she had always wanted a boat so she could ride on the river.
It immediately became my self appointed mission to get her a boat and fulfill her (literally) life-long dream. After one false start (I got badly taken by a guy in Ohio), I swore off used boats and went to a dealer. I found a new left over at a good price and showed it to her. She fell completely in love with it and was overwhelmed when we bought it right then.
In my mind she is the Skipper and I am her crew, so it fell to her to name the craft.
She wanted the name to reflect my relationship with her and hers with the rivers she grew up near as well as the boat that was going to take her on those rivers. Because I am German she chose to display her "triple entendre" in the German language, hence: Mein Liebesaff?re

Re: Boat Names

Our boat is currently named, "Brown eyed girl". Unfortunately none of the girls are Brown eyed, so we'll be going through the renaming ritual. It will eventually be named, "Payne Reliever". Our last name is Payne, of course, and it is the reliever of our stress.

Re: Boat Names

We named ours "Tess' Tubtoy" after our new baby girl Tess as we got this boat right after she was born.

Re: Boat Names

I have a 14' bayliner with a 48hp Johnson.....thought about naming it "Lil Johnson" but since I'm still single, I decided against it! <br /><br />It already has a small sticker on one rear corner that says "Stupid should hurt" (and it does) so I think I'll keep that for now.

I had a 12 ft gamefisher with a 7.5 johnson and being married I had no choice but call it lil johnson.

Re: Boat Names

Re: Boat Names

Back in my single days had a 1974 Glastron V184 that I bought from my uncle that he bought new in 74. He was into drag racing and had built a 351 Clevland for a mustang drag car he was building (dynoed out at a little over 425HP ) when his wife filed for a divorce so I bought the boat and the 351. After several weeks we shoehorned the 351 in and I named the boat "Wet and Wild" which just happened to be how I preffered my women and boats at the time (it was one wild ride). Have since married and have two children now own a 24' Maxum cudy cabin called "Whiskey River" because all my whiskey money whent down the river when I bought the boat. It's also Dale Jr's name of his bar in Charlotte NC and I'm a big earnhardt fan.

Re: Boat Names

My dad's bass boat was "Bass Akwards" and my grandfather, the retired Lt. Colonel, named his "Infernal Colonel" ..... and it was very fitting. He was one tough old man! As for me, mine had a name cause I can see where it was removed, but I can't make it out. I have a few ideas. I'll let you know what I decide L8R.

Re: Boat Names

OK, heres the story, my girlfriend of 17 years, thats right Im still single she was going through all my old pictures of boats I had as I was growing up.
she then asked if I ever named any of my boats, I said No, then she said I should name the boat after her. because it is suppose to be good luck to give it a ladies name. she hounded me for some time to name it
So one day I decided to name the boat.
I came into the house and told her I just named the boat and I wanted to let her come out to the boat to see it. I told her it was how I felt about us and all of her badgering of me lately. she walked outside and read the back of the boat.
"MIZ RIBLE"
She then told me how she felt about me. lots of bad language followed
I just laughed and reminded her it was her Idea
