Thread: Changing A boats Name

Right Its only a Name change (My boats got a faded ''SHAFT'' written in massive letters on both sides) Which I hate . I want a Name or Symbol or whatever , for safety reasons ; align my call sign , PLB to a boat name . Im fairly superstitious and changing a name is BAD luck (ok some may laugh ,but honest truth ) hence I don't want to change boat name , is there a safe way of renaming a boat ? . Haha I fell I'm going to be give shit over this post .

You could just add some letters to the end of the original name.

Like ED.

Maybe you could ask Neptune if he's accepting deed polls?

It has to be Boaty McBoatface

Although your boat might ultimately be confused with a submersible !!!
Not a great omen I guess.

Update 5-9-2016: In a decision that should surprise nobody, the National Environment Research Council has decided not to use the internet’s suggestion. In a statement released Friday, May 6, the organization announced that the new research vessel will be named after renowned naturalist Sir David Attenborough. The NERC did recognize the popularity of “Boaty McBoatface,” which topped the poll with 124,000 votes, and will use the name for one of the ship’s remote controlled submersibles.

What about just scratching off SH leaving AFT, you know because your a bit of a dag, found on arses. So it suits.

http://www.atlanticyachtdelivery.com...ew-OldBoat.pdf . @Ryan_Songhurst Cheers for the renaming ceremony (especially the getting half pissed while at sea bit ) But I may have to go with plan B as I can't remove the faint Etched letters out of my gel coat . So maybe , same name but say in Spanish ? Portuguese ?

fishing boats do it all the time, Just Change the name and spill some beer on it to please the gods (anything but Waikato)

All sorts of superstitions around boats,Most American Purse Seiner Fishing Masters will do absolutely anything to avoid leaving port on a Friday for instance

Just paint over it.....fishing companys rename boats all the time.

Or replace the sh with a d and add buggers on the end

@Munsey, you are about as bad as @stingray!

Just use a bit of 'cut and polish' to clean off the old name and get on with it man.

Knock up some quick black lettering and tape it over the top. See if you still notice it.
