Dive Boat Names

[Chuck Tribolet]

Do you have to do anything official when naming a boat. Do you register the name somewhere so that when youcall by boat name , other boaters and the COast Gaurd can cross your registraion number?

You don't HAVE to do anything. Just name it.

If you have a DSC radio, you would want to change the records associated with your
MMSI.

I don't have the patience to read all the posts, so I'll just presume that this hasn't already been stated. I know a pharmacist who named his boat "Vitamin Sea". Pretty nifty for him, but I don't know about a dive boat.

How about "Bottom Time"?

We call ours "The Black Rocket".

if your going to rename a boat you can only call it "doomed" because it will probably race you to the bottom

We are buying a dive operation and considering renaming the boat. Let's hear some of the best dive boat names for ideas. Also any renaming ceremony procedures would be helpful.

"Below Me"

Sorry I'm late on this reply, but this isn't completely correct. If the boat is just registered with your state, you don't have to do anything (at least for the West Coast states I'm familiar with). But if your boat is documented with the USCG, you do have to formally change the name with the National Vessel Documentation Center.
