You'd get everybody's attention if you named it, " GET NAKED"!
I image the Coast Guard would probably respond a lot faster, in case of some emergency!

Had some friends who named their little dashound, Naked Louise.
Of course,....I wouldn't name my boat that. Ha!!

Great answers, all! If I had a boat in the VI's, I'd be so happy I'd call her "Goin' Down" 😉

Hum-mm
Not sure I'd want to ride on a boat named that, LLBL.

How about, "Get My Drift".

I win,...where's my dinghy??

DreamConch - You're thinking too literally on the "Goin' Down" name. Not the BOAT goin' down........think about it 😉

Well, believe it or not, I did think of it the other way, but,...
I still wouldn't want a boat named that, just in case.

LOL, WHAT is everybody drinking today? You people are nuts.

I saw a good name for a boat, but i can't even repeat it on here. We were out in our boat once and I had to distract my mom so she didn't see it :o)

My mom is 84 and she was brought up strict catholic. The name on the boat is not something she would like to see, but we laughed. People have good imaginations.

If anybody would like to know the name, PM me and i'll tell you.

My dad's boat, in STT, was named "Snafu." We all know what that means, right?

I had this very conversation with my husband when we were driving on the left side of the road in St. John just two days ago...I'm naming mine, "Regal Life." (My maiden name)

How about "Dream Weaver" OK, this is a result of too many Aerosmith concerts in the 70's.

My Favorite is "4 Play"

I wish it sank, I could have gotten insurance $$$. Water got into the engine over the winter a few years ago (tarp ripped) I took it to the shop and the engine is fine but some other repairs are needed, about $2500-3000, we paid $5000 for the boat. I've been trying to sell it ever since to the shop but have had title problems and other issues, maybe I'll get it sold to him in the next couple of weeks.

Anybody want to buy a boat? 81' Searay, 21ft, cuddy cabin, head, camper canvas, EZ Loader Trailer.
