group of bozos again?? Good luck :-)


I'll pass that along to my wife - she actually came up with the name we
used. ;-)

8 years ago I asked the rec.boats newsgroup to help name my retail

outlet and I picked "Buoys & Toys" which I thought was a pretty cool
play on words at the time. In reality most people don't get it or
don't
know what we actually sell (some even think it's a gay Adult Novelty
store lol)


I am once again turning to my friends (old and new) in this newsgroup
to
help me rename the store to something that is unique and descriptive,
that also reflects the stock change from strictly marine to marine
supplies, Liquor, beer, and convenience items (milk, bread butter
etc)


Let's have some fun with this and see if we can't pull a rabbit out
of a
hat in the process. Any names you've seen at other marinas you
thought
worked well too?


If I don't get something catchy soon, I'm gonna have to go with
"General
Store" as a cop out this time around.


I'll save someone the first easy one - I'm not naming it Booze n
Boats.

The floor is yours....

The Lazarette

Bosun's Locker

Provisions

Brown's Grub and Gee Gaws

Brown's Tap and Barrel (maybe sounds too much like a bar)

Brown's General Store (probably the best choice)

If you include Brown in any of the names it will build credibility
among potential customers already sold on doing business with you. It
will make it clear that the building isn't merely leased to some
outside operator.
