Default Boat Naming Help

{lurk mode off}
Fellas (and ladies), I've been lurking in this group for several years
(since I bought an old used boat) and have received great help on
previous posts. Well now that darn boat show came along and forced me
to trade in my '78 Mark Twain 20' Cuddy for a brand spanking new 24'
Cuddy (Stingray 240CR if anyone wants to flame me for it)! Now I need
a boat name. My MT was name Hi-Tech, but I'm at a loss on this one.
Background:
Only my second boat
Family vessel for Chesapeake Bay and tributaries
Wife does daycare
I am an utter computer geek and am director of an IT department
(I've been trying to think of a computer related name).

Any and all suggestions welcome, as I've seen some great boat name
ideas come out of this group! Thanks folks!

(and for anyone wishing to just hate me, considering this group, I'd
put myself slightly to the left).

Name it after your wife. Its the best way to get her involved and keep it
that way! Tis better to have a happy crew, than a mad wife!

Personally, if it were me who is the IT geekozoid, I would name my
boat - wait for it, wait for it...

IT (if you are a real geek, 0100100101010100) or you could use IT with
the home port in binary or vice versa which would be more fun.

However, C Drive, C-Plus, Downstream, Upstream, Byte Bucket, Bit Speed
are some ideas.

Good luck.

Give some serious thought to "Mucho Loco". It's easy to understand,
easy to remember, and probably pretty accurate. Hope you enjoy yours
as much as I've enjoyed mine! I looked at the pics, and have to say
that I don't think you'd want a couple of 40" stripers flopping around
in there.

Why am I crazy? As for the stripers, leave the snap in carpet at home
and I can hose it clean at home! Thanks for the suggestion though!

I don't know, the wife doesn't like the idea of it being named after
her, but she does like the C-Drive/Sea Drive idea.....You guys are
great at this! Keep 'em coming!
