Wasn’t that Corey Cook’s boat?

 

[Lumpy]

Been thinking about renaming my boat to Hallettlujah

 

[SoCalZero]

Wasn’t that Corey Cook’s boat?

Yeah. Along with a handful of others.

 

[seanroberts]

Damn! That's a Hotrod

AWESOME! Is the first pic a Lavey also?

The first one is a Bahner, we love the Lavey’s, I’ve wanted a 32 or the 39.

 

[MPHSystems]

If I get a smaller go fast like a flatbottom, its going to be "Boobie Bouncer"

Let me photoshop some pasties on a photo I just saw for this.


Our boat is nameless. Unfortunately, my wife has seen this episode of south park and dropped the hammer on my choice.

 

[Blue Oval]

The RIB is named Phoenix, it had 10 inch letters down both sides. It was the name of the yacht it came off. Buddy works for the yacht sales where the guy traded it in.

 

[MPHSystems]

Our son just started UCR as a freshman. I think I may name our boat ”tuition”. That’s probably what I’ll end up selling it for.

 

[Eliminator21vdrive]

Das Limpet was re named For Play

Cooter Cruiser

 

[tostark]

Financed last boat so it was “Deeper in Debt”

Refinanced house to pay cash for this one and it is “Liquid Equity”

(Note: refinance was done in the low interest days. Lol)

My Eliminator Sprint was named Sudden Urge. My Sea Ray 270 Sundancer was named Floatin Alone.

 

[TonyFanelli]

Grew up on my Grandfather's Eliminator named 'Budget Breaker'. He passed a few years before I got my first boat. Asked My Grandmother if she would like me to keep the name going and name my new boat 'Budget Breaker II'. She smiled and said of course.

Next boat was named by my wife. 'She Loves the Deck'

Built our new boat and I really wanted to name her 'Blown Budget' to incorporate my Grandpa's boat with our new build. We definitely blew our budget, and of course the blower on the 600sci... Wife shot that down. She's not into the sentimental stuff. LOL! 'Big Deck Energy' was my next choice, she shot that down as well.

'She Loves the Deck II' it is...

I guess there's no need for "Keepin 'er Moist" since
'She Loves the Deck"

 

[BUDMAN]

I keep kicking around two different names. Father in law used to say “chump change” a lot and thought that was cool. I also like “empty pockets” because I’m a BDMF

 

[Familyties]

Back in the mid 70's used to go to Needles Marina, I think it was Jellystone Park then. My buddies boat was called "Bow Movement"
16 or 17 foot circle race boat with v drive with big block ford in it, Great times skiing with hardly any other boats on the river.

BDMF would be a good name

Always had this sticker on my ski boats

Squirter!!!

 

[FreeBird236]

I'm okay with the current boat's name, a 236 Eliminator Eagle as FREE BIRD, but the one liked the most and got the most comments on, was our 220 Eagle called " Justa Fledgling".

 

[Neverbowdown]

oh but it was a midlife crisis! as well as his Super Sanger, his capsule boat, his supercharged Tahoe, his slammed square body dually, his Targa 911. I knew it was a real problem when he bought a 450 King Ranch, he was a die hard Chevy guy

Glad he finally came around!

 

[Willie B]

… My 18 foot Sanger Runner Bottom is named…”Flat Broke”… I hate the name maybe because sometimes the truth hurts.
…My liveaboard from many years ago was named…Dreadlock Rose… I have no clue as to where I came up with that name… possibly because it was the Bob Marley era???… I don’t know???…
… My Spectra 24 is still unnamed… maybe I should call it the…”Driveway Adonis”… would be kind of fitting…

 

[02HoWaRd26]

Knot Again is one i like but idk if I’ll ever paint on our boat

 

[farmo83]

I saw this bad boy at a meet up. After a few hours I've never seen a boat name the fit the driver like a glove

 

[Neverbowdown]

I don't have a picture of it but my dad had an all blue Omega in the late 70's which he named "Blue Job".

 

[Havasu Surfer]

I enjoy hearing everyones stories and ideas. Last boat was named; One Track Mind. Didn't name the current boat yet. Might consider "Silver Tongued" or "Silver Fox" since boat is mostly silver and I have chrome highlights nowadays. Going to definitely name the jet boat when it comes into our stable.

Named my 78 Howard, "Pops Would've". I bought the boat from a good friend of mine, he invited me out to Needles to go out for a ride before I decided to buy it...after the ride, I told him I'd be in touch (I needed time to try to talk myself out of it instead of into it lol) I drove to my aunts house in Havasu later that day and pulled up in front of her house with no boat in tow "wheres the new boat???" she asked...I said "I need time to think it over I can't just BUY it!" she replied back "Thats lame...your Pops would've!" and I replied to her..."Yeah I know, Pops Would've loved that boat too".
I had just lost my Dad a few months prior, I was raised at the river and he always talked about getting a hot rod boat, he moved to Havasu shortly before he passed away and mention a few time that when he got to feeling better he was going to buy a boat...He never made it...so I knew that day when I called my buddy and told him I was in, I would name it "Pops Would've".
I called Howard and found out who does their lettering, they sent me to Mike Venditto...He's done their stuff forever...He even painted my dads hat on it. If anyone needs anything lettered Mike is AWESOME!

 

[Sharp Shooter]

It’s not painted on but I’ve always said given my family the boat’s name is “Mixed Nuts”.

No way am I carrying on my fathers race boat name of “Golden Commode II”. That can be quietly forgotten.

We did however have a jet boat called “Devil’s Advocate” and the number to match: 666. We got a LOT of odd looks anywhere we went. Someone even painted over the number once with spray paint when it was parked. We thought the whole thing was a lawyer joke, I guess some thought we were the anti-Christ.

Jack Williams Golden Commode?

Jack Williams Golden Commode?

I don’t know who has the first one, I’m not related to Jack Williams.

I believe he was owner. Not sure on all of the history but I can check the archives when I have time and piece it together.

Beautiful boat

 

[28Eliminator]

I’m stuck between “Soggy Dollar”, “Pain Killer”, and “Top Shelf”

But one of them is going on the boat this year… it’s only been 17 years

There were bubbles in the dark blue gel coat on my 19' Di Marco. Sonny said paint a name on it and I will pay for the art work. This was very edgy in the 70's

 

[Shlbyntro]

That's cool as hell!

 

[LHC Kirby]

Never named the first boat…. Just called it the Mariah. 18’ Mariah.

When we sold that and bought the 24’ Mariah …. It seemed huge.. plate says it can hold 15 people.

LIQUID LIMO

That was 22 years ago and she’s still hanging around.

 

[MeCasa16]

Usually when we people ask us what we do, and I say we are both pilots, they always respond “She flys too?” My canned response is always, “would you believe they let her drive and vote too?”
