Egads - boat name angst!
 
We are in the process of selecting a name for the new toy. The problem is
that while we have some names that we like, none really calls out to use. I
hope that the creative brains of rec.boats can help.

Some of our name candidates are based on the fact the my wife and I both
write for a living. So we have:

Write On
Write Stuff
All She Wrote

Then there's the fact that we are both amateur musicians:

Sea Sharp
Bass Clef
G String

Then there are some more general names:

Knot Working
Knot at Work
ReeLaxed
Tarpon Dreams
Fishin' Fool

And finally a couple of plays on my wife's name (Maxine):

Miss Max
Lady Max
Mad Max

I must say that this is a very pleasant dilemma to be in, but it is a
dilemma none the less!

Thanks,

Peter Aitken

cant make a cal here but take in mind that when u use your radio you
will repeat that name 3 times many many times, so make sure it is easy
to say and doesnt sound stupid

What do you write? There may be some novel possibilities there as well.

When I was a yacht broker, one of my clients was a woman who owned and
published a newspaper in a small town. She came up with a dandy name
for her boat, "Miss Print".

I'd consider discretion and call it "Just MAX".
