Really Stupid Boat Names

A few weeks ago, I asked for submissions for the Stupidest Boat Names and I was not disappointed. These are beauties. Thank You! This would not of course had been possible without the support of the awesome Scuttlebutt.

I have tried to categorize them and they have been unscientifically grouped in a totally subjective way that made sense to me after a few beers. I haven't figured my 3 favorites yet but when I do the submitters get CDs of the Top 10 Sailing Songs.

The original list, culled from several web sites, is in the extended posts. If you have any other names to suggest, I will happily add them. Here they are:

Top 10 Stupid Boat Names

A while ago, I came across the Top 10 Boat Names according to Boat US. Many of them are plain stupid, not least the #1 boat name, Aquaholic. Pu-lease!

In doing a bit of digging around, I found some other dumb names for a boat. Panbo had some great ones like the one pictured here. Imagine calling Mayday on your VHF in this boat.

Bernie Ebbers, the jailed former CEO of Worldcom's yacht was called Aquasition. He deserved time for that alone.

I thought it might be a good wide to come up with the top 10 Stupidest Boat names.

Here are some other beauties I found pecking around:

- a Little Nauti
- Adoryble (On a Cape Dory Typhoon)
- All Gulls and No Buoys
- All my Ex's (on a stinkpot so had it coming)
- Bad Atti-toad
- Bada-bing-bada boom (another aquamoron)
- Banker's Hours
- Bay Bay
- Baysic Necessity
- Beaverlicious (hmm! interesting)
- Beer Bait n 'Ammo
- Bezerker (a little scary as it was on a Hallberg Rassy)
- Better Knot
- Between the Sheets
- Big E Nuf (amazingly this was a sailboat. Probably motored a lot)
- Bikini Bottom
- Bimini Cricket
- Bite Me (on a fishing boat) 
- Knotty Boys (at least it wasn't knotty buoys)
- Messing About (what an excellent name for a boat)
- Gravyboat
- Bottoms Up
- Boat-acious
- Buoys in the Hood
- Learning Curve (written upside down on a sailboat)
- Sea-duction
- Sea ya
- Loon-a-sea
- Cur-n-Sea
- SeaRenity
- Tip Sea
- Seanile
- X2Sea
- LegaSea
- Itza -Du-Zea (Oyvay)
- Tax Seavation
- Slipless in Seattle (now that's clever)
- Feelin Nauti (I bet you are)
- Nauti Girl
- Nauti & Nice
- Reel Nauti
- Nauti Nurses  (I think most of the Eastern Fleet would show up if they ran into trouble)
- Nauti Intentions (OK now I am going to throw up)

Hilarious. I have to admit that my favorite is "If it doesn't come when you call it, why name it".

Reminds me for some reason of a certain well-known Laser sailor who had a dog named Skipper. Whenever he entered a regatta and on the registration form there was a box for "Name of Skipper" he always wrote... SKIPPER.

[Markham]

"Something witty and original" was one of the best I'd heard, but it was trumped by two of my friends who entered a laser event in their respective fleets and changed their own names rather than their boats.

Much confusion ensued as the committee tried to locate Ray Dialrig and Stan Dardrig in the dinghy park.

[Scheherazade]

My favorite boat name is the "Never Again 2."

[Salty Dog]

My favorite, spotted on the California Delta:
"Cirrhosis of the River"

[Debbie]

I can't explain why but by far this one cracked me up to the point of tears!

Shoot Low They're Riding Chickens

This entire post is far too funny.

[tinman]

working for a gov't contractor, I found "Change Order" with the dinghy named "original contract" to be hysterical.

[Vicki]

My fav boat names are Port-a-Party and FUBAR

[Matthias]

Great compilation!

I've seen a boat called "Itchy and Scratchy" in Hälsingborg, Sweden.

[ollie]

best one i ever saw was a boat i almost bought. it was a flying11 and the bloke who was tryin to sell it was a mate of mine who spent most of his time in the piss. so he painted the bottem part of the hull which was under water bright yellow and called it 'sunny side up'

[DavidGD620]

Used to go with a friend out of Gainesville, Fl. We usually launched the boat at Cedar Key, Fl or Suwannee, Fl. The name of the boat was/is "Wet Dream". It was always a fishing trip offshore in the Gulf of Mexico.

[Boating Equipment]

Dumbest one I've seen is "Iceberg Straight Ahead!"

[lim]

haha i am so happy as i am lim yu yuan.

Some funny boat names I've seen... Key of Sea, Time Thief, Dilligaf (do I look like I give a f---), Hard Drive, Lawn Dart, and Aquadisiac. The first two are powerboats - the others are all sailboats of varying lengths.

[Joe Smoe]

I have a friend who named their sailboat "Mr. Windy"

[Joe Smoe]

How about "Have you seen my dinghy?"

[t buffer]

I once devised the extremely irritating boat name "Boy And Sea"

[Justin]

My favourite is "Maid of Plywood?"

[traveller]

I saw a Catalina 22 Class racer called Chicken Ship. I liked the name, as with all racing vechicles wild and crazy names are just as much apart of them,as speed is.

P.S. These guys are good racers.

[Scott Studer]

I wish your sister was this wet.

[Soundbounder]

I saw a boat called SHIPFACED in Cuttyhunk last summer.

[bepo]

I liked "Off like a prom dress" on a 470
and "Holder Ears" on a Holder 20.

p.s. the guys on chicken ship aren't that good.

[Peter Belenky]

I'm amused by "Waning Planker" here:
http://www.pegasus18.com/dinghies/index.php/2008/01/04/international-canoe-gbr-212/#more-18

A clever (and slightly vulgar) pun on both words. An aging (waning) sliding-seat (planker) racing (planing) canoe. I default to you for the last word.

[tim.buckley@gmail.com]

"The Highland Laddie Funboat" (a yacht berthed at Largs -sorry who ever it belongs to, but its not the coolest name I've ever seen)
