Our boat was named "Georgie-Girl", but had been removed before we bought it. I dont know that the previous owner followed any procedure and that could be why I bought it from the bank at auction.

Once all the bugs are worked out, she is refreshed a bit more and the trailer gets a make over (or replacement)....well give her a name fitting of our time and experiences weve had with her.

Here are some were toying with:

After 5
Summa Home
Yacht-Sea
Just About Perfect

Im a retired banker from the Portland Oregon area (Tualatin).

Ours didnt have a name when we got it and we have yet to name it. I will need that dock procedure though after a rough summer last year lol. The ol girl was in the shop twice.

I did not have a clue what to call my boat... so I called it "mine" in Italian ( Il Mio), as that sounds sexier (and less macho) than the dutch version

By the way, great thread.

I purchased my boat with the name Trelos firmly painted on, albeit, quality job. It took me a bit to find out what it meant and I'm [I]pretty[I] sure it means "crazy" in Greek. I confirmed this once I got a look at the title and original owner, his last name ended with 'opolis" or something to that affect.
Of course the closest thing to anything Greek in my family is the feta cheese in my fridge. However it is a conversation piece, so it will remain for now. We have played with something along the lines of "for the kiddos" as our last name is Kitto. We shall see.

I'm a high school assistant principal in the wilds of Wyoming.

Years ago, I named my old Maxum " My Dixie Wrecked " Say it out loud a few times, you'll get a chuckle. No idea what to name the Mariah yet.

Hey
Just purchased a 2002 245 STC in December. I am renaming her in the spring to Scuba Due. I have the denaming ceremony ready to go ( good excuse for a party). As for the meaning.. I have been diving for a few years and well I was due to have boat.

Hey
Just have her in a shop getting buffed and having antifouling paint done and a complete detailing and buffing inside. ( she is going to be living at a marina in Nova Scotia) I only have the pictures from the broker because I towed her home Dec 17 and shrink wrapped the next day.. I will be posting up some pictures of the work over the next few days. Going to be a busy winter working on her. I am replacing the bimini top (color change), new graphics,VHF radio, sound system upgrade (need my iPod) ,a EPIRB, and a salt neutralizer system installed.


That's what the co-captain approved for this year..haha

The worst thing is that I have only had about a hour sitting in her so far.. winter sucks
