offshore or creeks
Going to be using it for offshore or creeks mainly? Any particular fish you really want to catch out of it to help assist with a name.

Perhaps...
Try and think of what the boat represents - for us it wove our dreams (of owning such a boat), so I came up with Dreamweaver.....
By the way, in WA boat names are NOT currently copywrite (but don't pick Dreamweaver
).

I agree with dreamy
Think of a name that suits you and your boat.
What sort of fishing you do? trollher or flickrig, debaiter, popher.
Fish you chase ? Taylormade or Salmonella bla bla
Life style ? Fullsnore, 'b'reel or c'u'l8or and so on
it will come to you take your time grass hopper (is it green) just a thought.
Enjoy

BQ...
It's a very old mariner tradition - starting off with female names - but then men got smart and started picking male names to the ships (boats) stayed on course (could navigate)...

Think to its superstitious to rename
boat or boat that has been wrecked old mariners superstition. a Lot of cray boats have name, say saltie then if they buy a new boat it'll be named saltieII, could be wrong. Somebody might know more on the subject.
