Boat Names with Children on Board

I think I was supposed to be a play on ‘cat’ and ‘campus’. It’s a restored hurricane cat owned by a couple that teach the CYA equivalent of the ASA courses. But definitely unique.

One we saw often in Grenada was Sunday Waffles.

Every Sunday we wondered if they, indeed, were having waffles 😍😍😍

Catawampus is actually a word!

adjective. askew; awry. positioned diagonally; cater-cornered. adverb. diagonally; obliquely: We took a shortcut and walked catawampus across the field.

Oops, I was quite wrong. At least I learned something new!

Now you just have to work the new word into conversation!

Ask anyone under 30 to help name your boat, and I guarantee that at least one of the suggestions will be Boaty McBoatface. Which, by the way, is a great name.

YES! And it made entertaining news as well.

then there’s the boat names concatenated from the kids names, like LynSuBob. How creative.

We have a local boat, and I won’t name it, with a Native American word that is a horrible concatenation in English. I cannot fathom what they were thinking.

Oh do-tell! Never mind what it sounds like in English, what does it actually mean?

my boat's name is

rubber ducky

kids out on the water always seem to get a kick out of it and it seems to bring out the inner kid in lots of grumpy old boaters

My previous boat was named after my daughter, the Alissa Too. I have had the current boat for 16 years, 14 on land with no name yet. Thought of Scraping Bottom, as I invented a bottom scraper along the way and it is a retractable keel in Barnegat Bay. Recently thought maybe Good Enuf, since it is almost 40 years old and kinda looks it. Then again my wife swore she'd never set foot on it and we are seriously looking at a divorce, so that may lead to some interesting names.

My boat had no name , poor thing... I did christen her "Mystery Ship". Everyone thinks it is a Scooby Doo reference, it is not. Anyone recognize it?

In honor of my two daughters, both pursuing dance careers, I’ve considered either “Jazz Hands 🙌 “ or “5, 6, 7, 8” both would have to be said over VHF with the right emphasis (if you don’t have kids on stage, I can’t explain. If you do, there’s no need)
Which brings up a question: can you name a boat with just numbers? If so, which ones would you use?
867-5309?

Keyframe42- Its sounds like Ride Captain Ride by Blues Image. It was also done by Blood Sweat & Trears
