Back in early 1980's my friend crewed on a big Hatteras sport fishing rig out of Corpus Christi named "Pop a Top". The boat was owned by an Oil Company there. Times were good so Buddy Davis built them a new 65" custom. They named it...you guessed it..."Pop a Top Again"

Boat Names

When I purchased my, new to me, 86 Ericson 32-3, she was named "After You". I thought it may refer to racing. But the seller told me it was a great name to use at bars when talking to women. He said the line went, " What's your name?" followed by " I named my boat after you." Needless to say, my wife ask me to change the name.

Re: Odd Boat Names

My late uncle was an otolaryngologist with a boat on Lake Michigan: Q-tip

He always said that people sticking Q-tips in their ears paid for the boat.

Re: Odd Boat Names

"High Boativation" should definitely fall into that category of odd (yet sorta typical) boat names, though when spoken, may just sound like the speaker is a little congested....;-)
