That's clever...I "missed" it the first time I read it.

Yep! @treeskier Joe spelled it out correctly... ;)

(Can't take all the credit for the name - a colleague of hers, some 25 years ago, had " mist . . " on his sailboat and we liked it, modified it slightly, and adopted it! Best part is it's p.g. and it doesn't force you to have to explain it to anyone you don't want to explain it to!)

(PS Joe: we'll keep an eye out for you on Assawoman Bay! We're up in South Bethany but were in Assteague just yesterday and plan to run down there a number of times this summer.)

Now I'm thinking "Aqua Deuce" or maybe "She's A Squirter". :)

I have a black AR210, last name Ball. Trying to convince my wife that the boat should be name "BLACK BALLed" or "Balls Out". She likes "Real knotty". I may let her name it if she'll let me name my fishing boat "Balls Deep".:)

I really like the look of my black-hulled boat without the decals, so I'm leaning towards "Black Pearl"

wife: "but we would be copying the ship in Pirates of the Caribbean"
me: "Then I'll have to put a pirate flag on it" :winkingthumbsup"

wife: :rolleyes:

Any opinions?

I hope you are enjoying that new boat!
I love it, too bad the water is too low in all our lake to get it in/out... so its sitting in storage..

Plus it is getting cooler and cooler......

Every time I see your screen name, I kinda kick myself for not going to look at the boat you now own! Glad you have it in good hands though!!

I have a 212X. Previous owner took off the factory decals and put new ones on, which I really like. There is a big emphasis on the "X":


The boat was named "X-TRA LUCKY" when I bought it. I had a few bouts of not so great luck with it (dead battery, bulged tire), and I always felt that it sounded like it was boastful. I liked the "X" emphasis, and after a few contests between friends, we all settled on "XTA SEA":


And no.. I neither do or sell Molly; albeit: we do love Trance music :D

My buddy's wife suggested "Bamaha" at the end of the summer. I think that's a winner.

I'm just not sure if there should be a hyphen in there...

I ordered my letters from boatletteringtoyou.com
I applied the decals to the boat at the end of June 2015. Although they are holding up fine, with no fading or peeling, I think that the vinyl is pretty thin.
The name is a long one, but I like it. When cruising coves looking for a spot to anchor, I often hear people from other boats say "Oh, I get it.", so it's pretty obvious if you're a Kenny Chesney fan.
"No Shoes. No Shirt. No PROPlems."
@kthrash, thanks for the Bimini 2015 sticker. I found the perfect place... but I might have a problem if I go again in 2016.
Below the Yamaha sticker is a glass pendant. It's called an evil eye. It's supposed to represent the eye of Medusa, and it is supposed to ward off evil. I got the idea when I was in Turkey last May. Most of the yachts there had one of these on their stern.

"Wahoo²" which hasn't been put on the new boat yet.

Old boat was "Wahoo" until she burnt to ground a month ago. Not much left of her :(
