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?

"Runnin' on Empty" after the Jackson Brown song. By the time my wife and I hit the water on the week end we are both running on empty.

Badda Boom Badda Bang. Previous owner was Italian. We were going to change it but he died on a Harley in Sturgis a couple years back. Out of respect, it will keep its name as long as we own it. RIP Pete.

almost no one knows the movie Fandango but that is where I got the name from. I thought it applied well to the flatbottom.
