I don't know about a boat name. Are you ready for this? We needed a name for our cat and since he always hangs out under the boat.............Hobie Cat !!!!

Buddy buddy Tim called his Gonzo,Halloween Hobie

Candy corn with colors like that?

My buddy has Gonzo sails with yellow hulls. What else but the Banana Boat?

I just pulled one home last weekend... that had been living in the weeds in the pasture for the guys mules......... and it was named.. "Shangri La"



Should have been named... "Knots me treasure"

Word of caution - I called my 16 "Cat-Astrophe" and last weekend the mast step link hinge broke whilst unstepping the mast, resulting in a torn off tendon on my left wrist (tried to stop the mast swinging forwards into my kids). Not really superstitious but...Just Sayin'

I can't help you on the name... BUT when I buy a boat I always ask the owner if she has a name as its BAD LUCK to rename a boat they say. That being said I like the Cat's A$$ suggestion metioned above! My first Hobie was properly named Goat's Head Soup by the way so that's taken! Good luck.

Chris,
I was just goiong to touch on that! Good call!

There is however a naming ceremony that will completely erase any bad juju from renaming a boat. It involves a bunch of alcohol, and various sundry other unmentionables.

Make sure you do the ceremony correctly if your boat had a name before!

You may have to do it a couple of times to get it right.

My fishin boat is Reel Knotty

At first my wife named the hobie "Not In My Back Yard" or NIMBY. I was going to go with "Knot Fishing" to keep the knot in the fleet. Since I'm not finished restoring her yet I think I have changed my mind yet again. I'm in sales so now i'm leaning towards "A Sail's Call".
