    How Did you come up with the name for your boat

    now that I am back lets play catch up.
    I named my boat after my daughters (MIS SAM)
    My daughters names are Marissa and Samantha.
    I just became a grandpa in April and am thinking of getting a Chris Craft, now my daughters are afraid that the next boat will be named after my grandson His name is Connor.

    I take the family (wife, 2 daughters and son) to a boat naming lunch. We would discuss the theme and then throw out all kinds of names to see what would stick. The first boat was Fish Lips - it always made people smile or laugh - I came up with that one. The next was Got Fish? - my son came up with that. We liked Got Fish? so much we decided that Got Fish Too? was a good play on the original name - my wife came up with the "Too" instead of "II". The rowboat is Here Fishy Fishy Fishy - all of the kids amost demanded that one years ago. Good luck.

    The year before I went into charter fishing, I tried to figure out a name that fits me for the boat and the company and could not find one that fit or one I liked. Back in my younger days I use to race "Mini Max Hydroplanes" and I was always in a hurry to get to where I went...I also have loved to fly fish. One day I had to go to the tackle store and was in a hurry to meet a stair client...paid my buddy and said "see ya, gottafly", ran out the door to my truck,sat down, started it and realized that I just named the boat and the business..."Gottafly"...

    originally had a long ass story explaining the boat's original name ( it was a lineage/heritage thing), but we had a hula girl on the back of our boat shirt. She became to be known as the Hula Girl boat, so that name stuck

    When I told SWMBO that I was going to buy a bigger boat the princess replied in her perfect southerneese "you do and it will be your a$$" - so I had no choice, I named it YOUAZZ.

    mine, well "Get Wet" is because I ONLY know 2 speeds, on the pins & trolling and since Im mostly at WOT, everone in my boat(s) would get drenched, so "Get Wet" and NO, there is Nothing sexual wth name either
