Non nautical names of boats
Everybody asks me what the name of my boat is. I have thought about naming it " Whiskey Girl" after the lyrics in Toby Keith's song because my boat is "Ragged-on-the-edges". Twin turbo carbureted big blocks do not like to run at all when cold. What names have people given their boat that are not a nautical theme?
