Thread: Naming a boat

Mybe what not to name it, I've seen a few that just seem to be tempting fate....

Reef runner?
Scirocco?
Thunder struck?

Your really just asking for the weater Gods to come and do you a nisty with names like those...

Just put 'ed' on the end

Fishing companys change the name of boats all the time so it cant be that bad.

Fisho's/Boaties seem to be a superstitious lot. @Munsey, do you look at the horoscopes before you go to work?

There's some really good info on renaming ceremonies online. Something along the lines of make a small sacrifice (of booze) to each of the four winds, burn the registration papers and chuck anything with the old name over the side.

I am a freediver and renamed my boat to "blackout" and nothing bad has happened... Yet.

I've always liked the name "Mortgage II" but I am waiting until I have something a bit bigger than my 5.8m centre console.
