Default name that boat

knowing the intelligence, wit, character, spirit, and nature of this
place and those who inhabit it, thought i'd solicit suggestions for the
name of a sal****er fishing boat. i've already gotten "fuktard",
"teat", "blood meridian", "fool"... so, if you were gonna give the boat
an interesting, meaningful name...?

of course, knowing the intelligence, wit, character, spirit...well, you
know, i'm not full of expectation or anticipation. but, in the event a
suitable name is suggested and accepted, i intend to appropriate it like
a goverment condemning private property - except there'll be little or
no compensation.

OK, I'll try to actually be helpful this time. Given your
profession, how about "Legal Eagle" or "Miss Trial"?

A strange and geeky lot, that's for sure. I had to draw
the line at the 636.7 dog collar for Kipper the Hound.
That's just too geeky even for SWMBO.

Miss Trial is the best I've seen suggested here, although I have seen a few
I really liked.

Years ago my boss had a boat named Lola's Mink. Lola was not thrilled.

My dad named his big twin engine Searay the Bob n' Ann. My mom wasn't sure
how to interpret that. LOL.

My new Bass Cat is nicknamed the Antique Kitten. I haven't lettered it on
yet, but eventually I will.

How about Dances With Tuna or Marlin Marauder.

I believe a boat should name itself from some circumstance about how it came
to be in your possession or how it performs for you.

"Split Decision" resonates on at least a couple of different levels, I
think.
