Naming a boat

My neighbor keeps insisting I name my boat. I don't see the need really but I am willing and I am considering it provided an appropriate name is presented.
His suggestion was to call it the "crapinator". I told him I thought that sounded to much like something I'd have to wipe when done. After that remark, he then suggests the "crapster" Again... sounds like something involving a toilet or some paper on a roll.. While his humor is appreciated, but still not interested. Perhaps ANY name that begins with "crap" is a bad idea.
So, any suggestions?

be ornery

Since this is not your idea but rather your neighbor's , Name it "MISS (enter your neighbors WIFE'S first name) ":eek::eek:
You might want to make that on easily removable stickers.:rolleyes::D lol
You do have a neat looking boat there. I'll bet it is a comfortable fishin machine. Illinoisgiller

I think I love the idea of the POFisher name....
Naming it after Miss Elizabeth would not only go over very poorly with my neighbor, but my wife would probably make me sell the boat... or take it when she divorced me.
Yes, it's a stick steer. I had to special order it. I just wanted as much room as I could get and a console steer just didn't offer that. It has a 60 hp ETech and is so much fun to drive. It shoots out the hole pretty quick and due to it's wideness, sits pretty good on those long nights on the lake.
So far, I've really enjoyed it.
I had a friend (machinist) make me 4 blocks to mount the rod holders on as the lip has a very weird angle to mount to. I have the mounts for the rear and front to troll with, but don't have them on the boat at the moment. It's just a matter of screwing in the rods. If I'd have left them.. I'd have had over 34 rod holders on this boat... I don't have enough fishing poles for that. :-)
Wait until you see the lighting system I put in it. The boat has a very large lip all the way around... so I purchased several of those LED round lights from Acadamy and mounted them under the lips, on both sides just below the rod holders. So both sides light up like a small stadium lighting. I ran seperate switches for either side, so I can control one, both or all.
It's awesome.
Joe has been a big help in ideas for this rig. He's pretty good at giving opinions. :-)
Hope to see many of you next Saturday.
