I am thinking of nameing my boats [ Chrysler 20 & Chrysler 26 ]. That is what I call them anyway, being 30 year boats I think thay have a right to be called by there name. Got the truck home last night, now I can be good to go. Home bass is Pinconning Michigan, an my go is to sail all the lakes in michigan, an we have a lot of them. I have a Mac. 25 for the inland lakes. Good place for that boat. Why have 3 boats, why not I have a lot of room hear, an I only a little money in the boats. C20 2400, Mac 25 1300, C26 2300

Why not indeed ! Reminds me of a relative being given her 3rd guitar in her teen years - grandmother asked in some exasperation "another one ? How many guitars do you need !"
Her cool and calm answer ?
"I don't know. How many are there ?"

I have a C-20 this is my second year. My girlfriend has been pestering me about a name since the day I bought it. The other night it came to me
"Blow Me". She didn't find that to be appropriate, I thought it was very appropriate for a sail boat.

Woody54, I now have the new nickname for my sailboat. She is officially the Sea-Shell-E, sometimes called "blow boat", but now, she will be deemed "Blow Me"!!! I love it!!!! But can't print that on her, we police officers can't be too offensive in public!!! lol
Disguise it!

How about reversing the letters "Emwolb"
Or using similar numbers "810W ME"

After saning off multiple coats of paint my boat is now a blaze orange, blue, black, and fibre glass colored in a sort of urban camo pattern. My fiance' has dubbed it "Guppy". I think that'll stick.
My Dad's boat (17' fish and ski boat) is called Skoolz Owt. Appropriate for a teacher I think.

my previous boat was a cat rigged scow. We painted a picture of "Bill the Cat" from Bloom County fame on the stern and named the boat "Catsass". I won the washerwoman Cup race in Marathon Fl. that year and the local radio station refused to say the name of the boat on the air so they spelled it instead!
