Clever boat names

[shayned]

Just saw a boat called Fish 'n Chicks, initially cks was blocked from view and I thought it was going to be chips. Gueesing the blokes not married.

" Fairly Olde"

[Cruize]

Mines "Fish Pest"

[Dirtysanchez]

I once heard of a flash kind of a bloke who had a sports cruiser named "After you"

Apparently he took a lot of single women aboard & would say "you know I named my boat after you"

He wasn't lying !! ;D

[Red_Nut]

My first one was a bit of a sh*t box, hence it was christened "Thunderbox". The second one has just retained the name - "Thunderbox II", but no stickers displaying the name on the new one yet (wife not real happy the name has carried over).

Cheers.

Ed.

[finga64]

My brother's boat is "Wui Wurri" pronounced why worry. I was going to put a sticker on the bottom with "I'm wurried" but I thought it would have been a bad charma thingo :)
One of mine is "Idle hours" for obvious reasons and I have "Junior" because it's only a little tiny. It hasn't fully grown yet.

came about one day when the missus was up me for not doing any housework. i was in a typical smartarse mood. so i said gender roles darling, you do the pink jobs(washing cooking cleanig ect) around the house and i do the blue jobs (bins mowing yep thats about it). so since it mainly me in the boat she sujested the name!

cheers

[reef_king]

I know of a trawler called "night stalker" should've been called "night raper" ;D ;D

[joremhar]

heard a bloke calling in to VMR at hervey bay and his boat was called SHE SAID YES. clever i thought.

[littlejim]

I liked one I saw called 'Sailbad the Sinner'.

[searay215ec]

Ours is called # PP's Inapod

Thats because both our first names start with P

[hirdy]

My mates large sea rays called SEA Ya because that would be the only thing people would see as his large wake hits them lol

[aussiefool]

used to have a pommy mate call all boats bo-ates, so I called my boat MI-BO-ATE. the one I have now is just Aussiefool II

[Kiktz]

Have mate that say the same thing, they never callt here boat a boat
they always say Bo-at, used give me the pips at first but now I kinda got
used to it

[maztez]

Ours is called MISTRESS ::) ::) ;) ;) use she gets more attention than anything else .Father in law calls his LIAR has done so for some 7 boats that he has had over the years .Quite appropriate for the old gentleman.
cheers Terry and Brett

[Argle]

Mates boat was called "Bloody Tourist" ;D

[JEWIENEWIE]

MY first boat was a little tinny so the name "little tinny" was appropriate. I am the sort of fisherman who has the shitiest gear, no big brands on my boat but i always seem to do alright on the fishing side of things so my mates say the name "little tinny" is more about my fishing skills! My current boat name is "a little tinny 2"
Jewie

[Kendall249]

I saw this in the latest bnb fishing Oct pg 42 by ben collins. It was the name of the CSIRO electrofisher, which was Donner and Blitzen (german for thunder and lightning). ;D

[littlejim]

The other one I liked which was explained in the local paper, this is years ago, was the Water Police boat on Canberra's lake Burley Griffin. It was puzzling why the lake needed a water police unit, but somebody obviously knew more about things than me. The police asked the University Professor of Greek for an appropriate name, I guess hoping for the Greek God of Guardians or watchmen or such. He suggested 'Platypus' which we all know is very Australian.

It also translates from Greek as flatfoot.

[Hot_Snappa]

Mate had a dive boat years ago called Muff Diver ;D

[petelaska]

20 odd years ago we got an old dehavland tinny. it was chrissened "the minnow" since then its been passed around the family through generation to generation. I don't think any one will ever sell it. but its great to pass around. It also gets the young blokes into fishing. One of the nephews even painted it black one time. we stired him up about being a drug runner and crab pot thief( he wasn't for the politicly correct). I got it back and had to put a couple of stripes on it so that we wouldn't be run down at night. Its about a 1963 vintage.

My half cabin boat got the obvious name "CabSav" and I enjoy a good red. Just like a fine wine it has sat in the bloody celler for about 2 years now.

[garpe]

I saw a trawler at Turkey beach called "sea strainer", bloke must have been a pig.
My son commented on the name of our boat the other day and afterwards said at least it's not called "Unsinkable 2"

[ozlongboarder]

As part of the refurb I have done on my Betram I stripped the old name off. But years of sun have made it still readable in the gelcoat even with some wet and dry sanding abd polishing. I was think the new name could be " Big Sticker to Cover Old Name". My wife was not amused.

[mini696]

More of an annoying name than clever. #Taken from a Pink Floyd song and stuck on a Laser (sailing dinghy).

"Several Species Of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together In A Cave And Grooving With A Pict", SSOSFAGTIACAGWAP for short.

24' powercruiser - 'just enuf'

A mate spent around 3 years lookin through boat books lookin for thr right boat, the only place he had time to read them was on the dunny. He finally settled on a 36" flybridge and started lookin for a name for her, I suggested "Porcelain Dreams" and it stuck.

Mate was gunna call his Pollycraft "Polly Wanna Snapper" but he never did buy it so I guess its there for someone to use.

[Stinger]

My missus seems to name my boats for me and buys the stickers for it.
A previous one I had she named Garden Knome because I was always at work and it just sat there.

She named my new boat "The Last One"
I think I'll have to get an extra sticker to put in front of that "Not"

The one that I liked was Yellow Polycraft called "Otto"

My mates boat is "Story Teller" ...... sums it up perfectly ;D

My last boat was an acknowledgement of the typical kiwi drinkers problem
