I liked Bandits " Short Hop", Scots "Short Trip" but Pat's "De Tour" made me laugh out loud! So I am rating it #1,... for now! Thanks guys. I should have asked long ago. Of course the Admiral will have the final say. Though I have always like Steve Perry's music, The moment of coming up with the name Journey, was from line in the Aerosmith song that goes something like "life's a journey, not a destination". Maybe not the most original name, but has alot of meaning for us.

"Dungolfin" is down the finger from us. I always chuckle at that name.

Boat name for a tax lawyer? Tax Haven.

I also like Hakuna Mattata. ("No worries" for those who did not have kids watching Disney's Lion King 24/7)

If i ever get to name a vessel it will be Traquility Base so the dink will have to be Eagle.

After a year of deliberating, we have settled on "Journey" for our Tayana, haven't come up with one for the tender yet. Got any ideas?

When we bought our boat I really wanted to go with Look I'm Naked...

thought it would be a good opening for any radio calls but the wife over ruled it & we went with the less provocative Escape Plan instead.
