Boat Name?

[JeffVans]

So, I need some advice, I can't decide on a name for my boat. I have narrowed it down to two names (one of which is in 2 different colors). What do you guys think? "ANCHORS AWEIGH" is one that not too over used and an homage to my USN days, "WAKE ZONE" is funny and also not too over used... HELP ME CHOOSE!!!!

Wake Zone in black IMO. Or, do both with a 70% offset! Note: I could not find the same font you used.

I like that!!! Since there’s no orange on the boat (only black and white) it’s a subtle reference to the NWZ bouy. The font is “gunplay” on doityourselflettering.com

Since my father was in the Navy, I like anchors aweigh. Thank you for your service.

Wake Zone has an active & military feel both due to the font and the terminology.
Anchors Aweigh seems more relaxing and leisurely. Again due to the font and the terminology.
I like Anchors Aweigh but both are good in my opinion.

The Anchors Aweigh font is "Gilligan's Island" ... it seemed fitting. lol

Being a Navy vet I like "Anchors Aweigh". I have the exact same boat mine is "Black Pearl" because
"Yes, I am a pirate two hundred years too late
Cannons don't thunder there's nothin' to plunder
I'm an over forty(Sixty) victim of fate
Arriving too late, arriving too late

Just make sure your take proper equipment and rations if you're planning on being out for more than 3 hours.

So, looks like Anchors Aweigh wins it. It’s now tagged to my MMSI, so none of you bastards better be trying to steal it!!! Hahaha
Time to get vinyl cut! Had to get this done in a hurry to tie to the radio before this weekend.
Thanks for everybody’s input!!!

I hope I am not too late to the party.
I say none of the above. Both of the terms carry a meaning which could cause confusion during radio communication.

Imagine crossing to Bimini and seeming sargass weed you ask .....

“ hydrotherapy II, do I have to slow down ?”
“No, wake zone”

I bet you money half the group will drop the throttle and will try to be respectful of the seaweed

Anchors Aweigh has been ordered and when/if it EVER stops raining and gets warm in VA I'll be putting it on. lol Thanks for everybody's input!!! Also, doityourselflettering.com is either cheaper now or is running a sale. The lettering was only $14 instead of $30 so I actually ordered 2 different color combinations to see in person before I put them on. I'll thorw the extra set on the trailer or something.
