Any of you guys, or gals out there have any suggestion? Our boat is one of the biggest boats on the lake we go to. It is a 27' bow rider with a Fuel Injected 502. Hold lots of gas and people. We spend most of the time hanging out with fellow boaters at an island. The name can be a little racy, but not too bad. Hey, any help would be great. My wife and I cannot agree.

Re: Naming Boat-Need Help---Please

There are websites with thousands of boat names. However the right name has to be agreed upon by both you and the wife.

names such as Nauti-gal, Cirrhosis of the River, Hydro Therapy, Happy Hooker, Frantically Relaxing, etc. are all cute and fit many boats, however may not fit your taste or needs. In the end, only you and your wife can come up with a boat name.

We went thru each of the boat name web sites, and settled on "ship happens" for the first named boat. The remainder of the boats were named for an event or something that came up in conversation.

If it was my 27' bow rider with a 502, I may call it Thumper, or Thirsty

Remember, like a tattoo, you can't change it (or sell the boat if it's really tacky). So don't pick something you'll be embarassed explaining to your 12 year old daughter when the time comes.

Hey, thanks a lot. Wife likes Thumper. That works for the big block with captains call, and the stereo.
