High Maintenance Boat Name

Just got the following message, which kind of cracked me up. Can you help with some ideas for boat names please? One downside for our vinyl lettering business, Custom Boat Names, is that this model doesn't look like it has much room to actually put a boat name on it! Oh well, that's no reason not to name her!

I will admit, I'm a little high maintenance. = )

We have a 5 year old daughter that is just as bad. = )

We like to just cruise and relax with our friends and our vodka and rum drinks.

Okay, then! Submit your boat name ideas below the picture of this family's Crownline. Oh, and by the way, the family in the picture are the models from Crownline's website, not the actual family that needs their boat named here, so please just focus on the message and the boat. Good luck!

Another Fireman Another Boat Name

Why do we get so many reqeusts for boat name help from firemen? I wonder if a large percentage of firemen are boaters? Maybe being surrounded by water is the best place not to think about work when you're in the business of putting out fires.

Anyway, here's our latest request:

Tried to make a name out of our initials, but no luck. However, maybe we could go another avenue. He is a fireman and I do MRI. Need some imagination. What do you think? We like to fish and have fun with friends on our boat.

Help a fireman out. Please add your suggestions for boat names below.

We Have A Winner

Actually, we have SIX winners. And, we have a name for the boat being rowed across the ocean this December by a courageous team of women from around the US. The name the boat contest, which ran in March of this year, was sponsored by Ask the Boater and Custom Boat Names.

There were hundreds of great boat names submitted, but the grand prize winner - chosen by the team - is a good one. I have to admit, I had to Google it to figure out its meaning. The winning name - Festina Lente - couldn't be more appropriate for a boat that is being rowed across the Atlantic Ocean.

Congratulations to our First Prize winner, Larry, who came up with the winning boat name and is receiving over $500 worth of prizes, including:

1. Perricone M.D. skin care products (value $100)
(Includes: Full-sized Face Finishing Moisturizer and Nutritive Cleanser)
2. In home computer service from NerdsToGo (value $100)
3. Defying Empire - A book by Thomas Truxes (value $30)
4. Autographed copy of the book Guide to Pirate Parenting
5. Russell Organics gift set of Organic Shower Gel from SpaSkin.com (value $64)
6. Vinyl Boat Lettering Package from Custom Boat Names (value $100)
7. Gift Certificate to Boat Name Gear (value $100)

Additionally, five runner ups, Joe, John, Ron, Lou, and William, were chosen at random and will win prizes valued from $20 to $70 each.

Thank you to everybody that helped make this contest so successful, and to our sponsors without whom we would be giving away a crappy thank you note a pat on the back.

Congratulations to all our winners, and most of all, congratulations to the team for finally having a new boat name!
