If you had a boat and you could name it, what would you name it? Notice: For those who own a boat, just say if you could give it a different name.

CCR! Of course, what else could there be?

Oh well, maybe the long version: Creedence Clearwater Revival

Sam, I can give you ideas. Possibly you can name it after a special person you encounted in your life or a great person you like in history.

Greetings Sam,
When i was young,i use the own also a very small open sailboat(varien type),so i named her QE2.
It was maybe a small boat,atleast this name represent a big vessel.
However,it al comes to what you want,maybe you have a historical person in mind,or maybe you like a country where you was on holiday.
You can also put a funny name on that boat of yours.
So we can give you maybe idea's,but it's all up to you.
Regards
Marc

I think I'd take a tip from the Movie "Hot Shots": S.S. Essess !

S/S Ship Sim.

Rick1958 · « **Reply #15 on:** May 27, 2007, 20:03:05 »

My boat is "KnotAYot"

Traddles · « **Reply #16 on:** May 27, 2007, 20:38:43 »

I have a "Mirror" sailing dinghy called "Nordkapp" after North Cape in Norway. I used to own a 26ft motor cruiser called "Arctic Skua". as you can see, I like Nordic names. The fishing boat in the add on named "North Star" has a nice appeal too.

tman · « **Reply #17 on:** May 27, 2007, 22:47:13 »

I would call my boat Carpe Vita (Seas the life)because my family owns a 42 foot sailing cat and it's name is that

LucAtC · « **Reply #18 on:** May 27, 2007, 23:50:18 »

Hello,
Nordkap is an interesting name for the North Star, see also
http://www.modelenium.co.uk/models/NORDKAP--BIL476.aspx

It would have to be my favourite ship, Ikeja Palm, what an era that was!

I do aswell but I will always have my way of changing it into my own, eg.

Stena Line= Small Line
DFDS Seaways= KDSS Seaways
P&O= K&S

AriesDW · « **Reply #22 on:** June 01, 2007, 11:32:15 »

I think though if I were to name the following vessel types, their names would be:

Ocean Liner: Leviathan
Mega-yacht: Triton
Tanker/Container: World Carrier
Ferry Line: Elegante Excelero or Challenger Ferries
