Hey Mr. Monkey - I'm not suggesting you're uncouth or out but do remember that whatever name you give your boat will also become it's radio call sign - do you really want to be calling the coastguard saying "Humber coastguard, Humber coastguard this is Big Hairy Dripping Bellend"
I can't understand why people call their boats stupid names - IMHO it's not big, it's not clever. Mind you the names people give their poor bairns these days WTF.

"Cuns Trik" that kind a vibe - I hate it. We've had a bit of ribbing today over the name "Pansy" but it stops as soon as you say that's what they called her way back then and that's what we call her now.

Me dad's first new boat was named after our kid's nickname - Jinny Spinner. I suppose it wouldn't have worked if her street name at the time was "Kill dem Pussies"

still puzzles me why there's a charter boat further down the coast called 'Shy Torque'
wonder what it says about the skipper when he's clearly happy with calling the coastguard "humber coastguard humber coastguard, shy torque, over"
betcha there's a numpty in north wales thats called his boat "Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch"

If the boat was built in Llanfairpwll then it's gonna need some beam or very small lettering

Lucky really considering it's in Walker /Byker ,in fact on the land where my dad used to work ,the old Hawthorn Leslie site .
I can remember it round a bout there ,so the boat names are posh in my oppinion

No Mark, its a Colvic Seaworker from Hartlepool, by the way I looked up at St
Petes on Sunday afternoon on spec, saw the Pansy but unfortuanatly missed you guys, your boat looks even better close up...

but not too close up!!
about 150 yards is the optimum distance, even better if its a bit dark as well
she's coming out of the water in a fortnight so should look a bit better after that

shy torque is a derritive of the term that originated in the navy "Sh1te Hawk" which is what they call seagulls - for those who dont know.
look here for some good bad and ugly names
Our Boat Name Collection
one that i though would be quite apt for me was
"Cirrhosis of the River"
another website with lots of ideas

My first boat which I've just part ex'd for a bit bigger one was named xanadu , it's the name of a"mysterious and wonderful place" apparently.
My new one hasn't got a name officially yet , but she's being named ELEDA.
It's my wifes name in reverse
Good luck with your new boat whatever you decide to call her , and I hope the weather settles so you and the rest of us who can't wait to get out in their boats get the chance to use them properly.
