My boat is named Dragon Fly.
When I brought it i had a Welsh wife and she did fly off.
Might have to happily rename the boat Solo Kiwi :-)

When Blue Lady was in Lake Macquarie there was a boat there called "felatio 1" It was always comical listening to their log in with coast guard.

Maybe: 'I went bananas cause I've bought a Banana'? No... It seems to be too long. :P

In a previous life my first ex-wife and I bought a little 16 ft. daysailor, and she kept insisting that it needed a name. I thought painting a name on the transom of a 16 ft. AMF boat was a bit pretentious, but she kept on about it every time we took the boat out. Finally I bought a package of stick-on characters and put "Phuquehoff" on the boat. She didn't get it, but one of the neighbors eventually spelled it out for her. She was upset and wanted me to change it. SO I suggested "Bloguehob" as a good name for a sailboat.. It went unnamed for the rest of the time I owned it.

I don't know if it's clever, but the most obvious name for my boat was DABOTE.

Reminds me of that muso in the 70s who did an album and called it "Album". The tape was called "Tape".

Although "Mayotte" isn't bad at all, in a similar vein.

"Between the Sheets."
A friend got his inlaws upset, when he named his boat 'Exit.'
Altho he didn't plan it that way, it eventually worked out that way .
