How about 'Seas the Moment" to go with it.
Now if I was a rock star I would have called my band 'Bustherhymen and the heartbreakers"

|  more names
After having this discussion over the weekend, some are fresh in mind that I've seen: "Peace" "Sea Ya" in Huntington, NY
others recalled seeing "His" "Hers" "Settlement"
I like "Therapy" "Osiris" "Fish Dish"
Personally, I wouldn't want to select a name in advance of owning a vessel --seems too impersonal.

My very first Sunseeker was renamed by me to 'Wreak Less'.
My second boat was named 'Moonlighting'
My third boat was the Spice Girls film boat 'HellRazor', previously owned by Neil Ruddock ( of soccer fame Razor Ruddock )
My current race boat is simply '69'

Some years ago I saw in a city near my hometown a boat with the name Spice of Life. Absolutly aphorism for a boat, is'n it?

FUJIMO was Jane, I raced against it for many years. Several years ago at Key West Race Week the crew wore shirts that simply said "Jane's Back" it was very funny and the hit of race week.

Which Roamer are you redoing? There was one in Pentwater for a while that I kept looking at. It would have been fun but I was only missing two things, time and money. I would have named her "Old School" I always thought that would be a cool name for an old boat. By the way, my wife is Ojibwe also, is she from the St. Ignace area?

my user name is also the name of my boat. When I was in college I was a simi-pro windsurfer, my station wagon (which was also my home most of the time) was covered in stickers and always had surf boards on the roof. We called the car "Surf Cruise" when I traded the boards for a boat "Surf Cruise" was the only thing we could come up with. That was 16 years ago and I cant imagine owning a boat with any other name.

Whenever I talked about yachts with my mom she tells me that everyone is entitled to their own fantasy. I thought I would turn that around and name a yacht Fantasea. Has this name already been taken?
Also since the sexual names seem to be so popular what about wet dream? I wouldnt put that name on my boat but I bet someone has or will one day!

I've seen a few "Wet Dream's" over the years... more often on speed boats than yachts though.
