We make our own wine (and lots of it) so "Touch of Glass" (wine glasses and a fiberglass boat) seemed fitting!

"It's Only Money" was my wife and I first boat.
Last boat was "Weekend Therapy"
Current boat, "Naut in Rehab".

Last two were based off what my wife does for a living, she's a Physical Therapist on an inpatient rehab unit at the a local hospital.

We named our boat for two reasons, cheaper to Coast Guard register and why not?? I've been in IT all my life, which means CTRL+ALT+Delete gets me to the water the fastest!

After seeing how well my 8.2 runs, I should have named it. She' Gone! :-)

I thought about "Kill -9 *" but figured nobody would get it.

Our first cabin in the mountains was called "Bearadise". Our new lake house is "Bearadise by the lake". Our boat is "Bearadise Too". Kind of a play on words as this is our second boat...

"Stand On It" is mine....some people don't know that it means "floor it" or "put the pedal to the metal", etc.

I agree completely. My wife wanted to name our current boat before we took delivery. I said I can't name it until I see it's personality. I also like names that have double meanings.

Here are the names of my last three boats (new to old):

"Knot Easy" (it previous name was "Knot on Call"). This keeps part of the old name, and reflects the amount of work it takes to trailer, clean, and cover a 24' after each use. Double meaning might mean easy speed.

"Sea Cow" (Chaparral 197 Cuddy) Inspired by "Steers like a cow", a line from Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy describing a spaceship. Steers like a cow was my impression on an early trip when I was heavily loaded with people and dive gear. Double meaning is a nod to our Manatee population.

"Blue Streak" my 16' Blue Ski-Boat. (go-fast boat)

Ric, How about for your boat... "SPERM WHALE"
