I named my boat "The Job". Now my secretary does not need to lie when someone calls to ask where I am....she can honestly say "He's out on the Job!!

Just what I always want to be. "THAT BOAT".

It lived up to its name today. "THAT BOAT is going out with ANOTHER fish!" :grin:

"....you ever think about givin that old boat a name?, 's bad luck to have a boat without a name yaknow..." ~ forrest gump

Hey airborne, how ya been?

Boat names huh? "cirrhosis of the river" has quite a story behind it. Recently purchased a new drifter (new to me) but its to nice to name it that.

Had one called " Mad Wife II? " (the name was unfortunatly inspired by mad wife #1, and everyone else on the river who had a wife at home)

I think its available now (the boat name is also :grin: )

Good question, mine needs a name as well...tough one, I dont think I made half the effort to come up with my kids names! (son was named after the street we lived on when my wife concieved believe it or not..."Spencer") My mom had a fit when she heard that.

Ive said enough...good luck, tight lines.

Conspiracy Theory · 07-07-2003, 10:43 PM

I think I'll name mine "cheap used Bayliner, but it works"

trap50 · 07-08-2003, 03:28 AM

Very interesting the way our boat got it's name"R&C's Star Keeper". When I met my wife, online, the song "Keeper of the Stars" was playing on the radio, hence the name. Been married 5 years the 17th of July. [img]graemlins/hearton.gif[/img]

Fish4Fun · 07-08-2003, 06:41 AM

When you are out there fishing and having fun with friends and family what else describes the day. So I named the the boat FISH 4 FUN

Airborne · 07-08-2003, 07:17 AM

My Dad named his boat "WUZ FUZZ" since he used to be a cop, I think he is on WUZ FUZZ III now.

HammondSeaRanger · 07-08-2003, 07:44 AM

Gr8waves · 07-08-2003, 08:00 AM

No official name, but my fishing buddies call the boat "IAAJ" or Its All About John since I point out the only real reason they are in the boat is to net my fish!!

greenbuttskunk · 07-08-2003, 08:02 AM

mine's called "vicarious"

Wife's name is Dawn, thus the boat's name is "First Light". We had real christening ceremony so as to not have bad karma associated with the new boat. My old boat was named "How Nice" - my dad's boat and name before it was mine... his very favorite joke was associated but I'm afraid I can't tell it here.... sorry.

Kentucky Hog Hunter · 07-08-2003, 08:13 AM

Its original,

"KENTUCKY HOG HUNTER"

And no, this is not taken from a scene of the movie "Deliverance"

Just thought it would would be appropriate for a Native Kentuckian.

gofishoregon · 07-08-2003, 08:21 AM

By default my boat is named the Seahawk, manufacturer, Chris Craft, put the name on the side in huge letters. They should wear off in another 5 years or so.

I have always wanted to give it a name with the word "reel" in it, but use the word "reel" to mean "real". I have several:

REEL COOL
REEL GOOD
REEL FINE
REEL CRAZY
REEL SMOKIN'

Can anyone come up with some more "reel" good ones.

freespool · 07-08-2003, 08:23 AM

As a youngster growing up in North Bend,my father was an avid salmon fisherman. Of the several boats that came and went from our driveway,two stick out. The first was the Up Chuck and the other was the Sore Ass.

Wreckless · 07-08-2003, 08:32 AM

I think I told this story before, but, My boat is named "Wreckless" because I had a "little" boating accident in my last one.

I have 3 screws in my hip to prove it!!

My duck boat is named the "Quacker Attacker"

Gus Orviston · 07-08-2003, 08:45 AM

Pete · 07-08-2003, 08:57 AM

My first boat, a 1955 28' mahogany hulled Chris Craft was pretty much a wreck when I got it and in spite of endless hours, never got a lot better. She was the "Halfa".

Second real boat was my Willie drifter. It bobs and bounces along through the white water, so I named her the Ouzel.

In keeping with the water birds begining with the letter "O", the sled is the Osprey. (now the Osprey II)

lostpuppy · 07-08-2003, 09:30 AM

"Lostpuppy" of course, because I am always lost. [img]graemlins/1zhelp.gif[/img]

FastAction · 07-08-2003, 09:58 AM

My boat names are the color. Blue is one and Grey is the other... along with the names of my fishing poles..

6wapiti6 · 07-08-2003, 09:58 AM

I was driving into work yesterday morning on the banfield and saw a old drifter. I did a double take when I noticed that instead of clack a craft, the guy had named it the crapa a craft...The name fit the looks of the boat! The name on my drifter..."Catch My Drift".

h20dog · 07-08-2003, 10:48 AM

my 16ft intruder is officially the "H20 DOG".unofficially its the S.A.C. (SPOUSAL AVOIDANCE CRAFT). once a year i polish the crud out of it and for about a month i call it the "chrome dodger"

Birdnest · 07-08-2003, 12:16 PM

Our boat's name is NO QUARTER.

We will show no mercy to the hatchery brats...bonk, bonk, bonk.

We also no longer have any quarters. :shocked:

The Overfishin Condition · 07-08-2003, 12:35 PM

In Homer, AK on Saturday I spotted a boat with the name "C:/esc" I thought that was cool, and original. And my favorite boat name is a friend of mine out of Ilwaco, the "Rock and Reel."

Pilar · 07-08-2003, 01:49 PM

The name on the boat is 'PILAR'.

Flatfish · 07-08-2003, 01:51 PM

For sale.

Mark and the soon to be boatless, but not for long dog.

timinthegorge · 07-08-2003, 01:54 PM

My 19' Alumaweld is named the "Every Penny II". The first Every Penny was a 44' Pacemaker my best friend owned and lived on in Gig Harbor for over 20 years. When he died suddenly 3 years ago, I decided my next new boat would be the EPII.

And given all the Boat Jewelry I've been buyin' since I got her last July, I'd say it's pretty accurate..... Tim

NETONE · 07-08-2003, 02:23 PM

I have yet to name mine, Have no clue as to what I would name it...maybe..."Thank U Honey"

timinthegorge · 07-08-2003, 02:49 PM

That's a sure winner Netone....

Wright Angle · 07-08-2003, 03:11 PM

My boat name is the same as my moniker (Wright Angle) Three years ago my old boat was broke down during Springer fishing and I was just not getting many fish from the beach so I thought to my self that Im just not approaching the fish from the right angle (ie: my boat) so when I ordered my new boat I named it Wright Angle (My last name is Wright and I angle so there is a double meaning, a play on words) now Im always fishing from the Wright Angle.. :grin:

My best friends boat has no name but I tried to get him to name it ruthless as we are when we fish, but his mother in-laws name is Ruth and it just wouldn't look right.. but I kind of like the double meaning..

Oregonrodnreel · 07-08-2003, 03:42 PM

I was going to name my boat “Summer Fun” after my wife, but now that we are recently divorced I think “Topless Fun In The Sun” is the new name of choice. Also with the double meaning, I still don’t have a windshield or top for it yet.

Silver Hilton · 07-08-2003, 08:41 PM

I call it the "Silver Hilton", but there have been good days when it has been suggested that "Target of Envy" would be appropriate. I think 2 days over the last twenty years...

nwjetboat · 07-08-2003, 08:45 PM

My boat is named "Bad Habit".

AtWorkALot · 07-08-2003, 11:49 PM

"Slop Bucket" It was my Dad's nickname. I don't really know the meaning behind it.

Since 1985 all my jet boats are named PISCES X.

Because X marks the spot where the fish are....

Fishplay · 07-10-2003, 03:37 AM

19ft Maxweld = 'Fishplay'

28ft Thunderbird = 'ROTSA RUCK' previous owners said the boat was lucky and a fish killin mahine so the name stays.

2LEYS · 07-10-2003, 08:21 AM

No boat yet but it will be named 2LEYS. Because I have 2 "leys",
Brad"ley" and
Ha"ley". My 2 Kids.

FishOrDie · 07-10-2003, 09:59 AM

IO have a crappy 12' mirro craft for small lake fishing. Not pretty but very reliable.

"SS ***"

Jennie@ifish · 07-10-2003, 12:05 PM

When I had a boat... a small little wooden boat, it was named The Cosmic Muffin after a Jimmy Buffet book I read. I just loved that name! :smile:

I totally refinished and refiberglassed it all by myself! Then, I painted it blue and white and painted Cosmic Muffin on the back.

It rowed really nicely except for the time I made an anchor out of a milk jug filled with rocks and forgot to pull it when I headed back across the lake. It was a tough row! I dredged the whole bottom of the lake and had a weed ball bigger than my boat by the time I realized it! :smile:

DOH!

Jen

Norm · 07-10-2003, 12:15 PM

I put as much thought into my boat name as my monicer, " Alumaweld Stryker "

. Heck, it was already even painted on the side of the boat :grin: .

Tanner · 07-10-2003, 12:19 PM

I don't have names for any of my boats. But some of the best ones I have seen are.

1. Filet Show
2. The Cunning Lingus
3. Succesful Litigation (This was on a 100+ foot motor yacht moored down at riverplace marina on the Willamette)

DipSeaDiver · 07-10-2003, 11:25 PM

Some of these names and stories are just too funny!!

Our new Edwing boat will be named "Irish Wake".

GutZ · 07-10-2003, 11:51 PM

"Fishguts"

It's usally covered with gore.

Someday I would like to have a boat called

"Oncorhynchus Mortem" - Salmon Killer!
