Name for my searider

chewy · 20 April 2009, 17:25

Right, I need a name for my SR4 as the one it has now is from my fishing boat and doesn't really suit it.
Any ideas?

Searider / Zippy / Orinoco

I thought of blackjack the other day for a black boat. Named after the rather potent cocktail of the same name drunk in Haslar marina

Nice, just googles Orinoco. Also need something the CG can understand as not having the best off radio voices!

Venus.

After the shanty

My current boats name Intrepid Lass is an anagram of a favourite island of mine Priest Island .. you can use various internet anagram servers and plug in something meaningful to you and see what ya get ?

I was under orders to name mine after the nightclub I met my wife in. To think I was that drunk that night I got on the wrong night bus. Ended up at Southport instead of Liverpool. Some call it fate, I call it Absinthe!

How about staffy? After the dogs

Given your RibNET nickname how about

Kashyyyk - Chewbacca's home

or even just

Wookie ?

chewy · 22 April 2009, 13:24

Was thinking of Dave so when I shout the CG I can shout this is Dave. The wookie idea is good, also chewy or my original plan and name it confusion. I'll look a right tit though if I break down and have a boat named confusion!

Put in Staithes on the anagram thing, so far its come out with "Ashes tit", my mates girlfriend is Ash, and "eats shit"

Sounds like the wordsmith algorithm has developed tourette's syndrome

It could be worse, I put in chewy as well as that, and it came up with

'Sweaty Hitches'
