All in the name

In comments recently I think it may have been with @bozz I mentioned how when walking around the port I am always checking out the names of boats which lead to this post

I always tend to be reading the names of boats, some make me chuckle, others make me wonder the story behind them, or as in the case with this first photo the name has some significance to me.
The Queen of Peace is such a name, because I worked in peacekeeping for thirty years and have many good and bad memories from those times when I saw this boat and got this shot, it came to my mind to do a post when I was focusing on or talking about the names of boats

Now not all boat names bring back memories but this next one the Big Dog, does remind me of a colleague both from my time in the New Zealand Army but he also joined the UN so a friend and colleague I worked with on and off for well over 40 years, now his nickname wasn't the big dog, but often after a few beers in him he would call himself the big dog.

Now this next Boat and its name the Hustler, doesn't bring back any specific memories but over my years and my travels I have met many who are or tried to be Hustlers

and this next boat Fishin Addiction has a name fit for many who like going out fishing whether commercial or private I am sure with many it may be an addiction, I have friends and family who back in NZ go out fishing a lot, one in particular, has a favorite fishing spot, which to get there entails an hour or two drive, a few hour hike to get to his favorite spot, and he often goes and camps out there for a few days, not sure if thats an addiction to fishing or enjoying the peace and quiet away from it all

And as I do in some posts I finish off back where I started with another shot of the Queen of Peace.

I have many shots from the State pier and docks so this may be the first of a few posts focusing on the names of boats

I think all boat owners give their names, and sometimes they come up with weird and funny names. 😄

Yes Indeed i do believe you are right

I am the same way about just about anything or anyone I come into contact with. I'm a collector of stories. I love to hear the origins of people's journeys or how a boat came to be called one name and not another. It absolutely fascinates me!

I think it opens up one’s mind by learning the stories and history of others

Here s some !BEER for the always great shots!

Thanks appreciated

That is a really great name the "Queen of Peace". I like that a lot. My neighbor has a boat. I think at one time he was talking about calling it "Side Piece" because he has to put more money into it that he does his girlfriend. It is like having a lady on the side!

hahahahaha! that's a great name. lol. 😆 side piece... Still laughing.

LOL at Side piece :)

and yes the Queen of Peace was my favorite

A friends sailboat is named "toi et moi" what means "you and me" and this is the only boat name I know 😊
I like the name "Queen of Peace" and it might be interesting to know why the boat has got this name.


!BEER and !WINE - both make a nice dinner with !PIZZA :)

I too like reading the names and wondering how they got their names. Some are very interesting. Very cool post! Can't wait to see some more.

I named my Jeep when I first got her.. Her name is 'Old X' .. She's been very good to me and I should have talked with @bozz first because a better name would have been "Side Piece" lol.

Does anyone else name their vehicles??

IMG_E4005.JPG

thats a cool jeep and a good name for it, and I know many people that name their vehicles ;)

I used to but never named my current one which has me wondering why I didnt

Thank you! I tried to keep her as original as possible, but it's hard to do with a Jeep.

NAME IT!!!! hehe.

My wife normally picks the names she never likes my suggestions lol

😆 I hear ya! Maybe whisper them over and over again in her ear while she is asleep.. That may work. hehe.

Lol
Thats a plan

Breathtaking night view photography. So a beautiful atmosphere. ❤️
This looks magical, Gorgeous photography dear.

Have a great day

We've had many boats in our family and many names. The most recent, which we no longer have as we've no money for boats haha, was the old Grandfather's last sailboat left here on our shores on the tracks that lead to the boat house. I remember when it was hauled there and left not going the rest of the way into the boathouse, is typical way. now he is gone and we are here and the boat, sadly, had to go. It was just a 35 foot morgan, but a good sailer and it was called "CHIPS" and painted blue, a joke about blue chip stocks...We wished he had left more of those lying about rather than rotting boats haha.

Lol
Chips used to be my nickname in the 70s

you always show interesting things around the pier, the scenery around it is amazing, hopefully healthy always friends..

Thanks kindly your support is appreciated

Have a great day

Same with friends, hopefully healthy always, and always show interesting things.

Thanks kindly your support is appreciated

Have a great day

Big Dog, Shearwater, Queen of Peace, Hustler, Fishing Addiction...what happened to female names (except for Queen of Peace, which is a Catholic name)?
Do you like to sail, @tottoodjay?

there are boats with ladies names that may well be another post ;)

I have never sailed to be honest

Looking forward to those, hehehe!

I want to try, I can't (honestly) I need money.... and even ashamed... but if you can promote, please help. Yes, I'm not good at English either...

I think we all know a few people that have called themselves 'Big Dog! lol.
I like the idea of this post, I will see the next time I am at a fishing harbour about getting some names too!

Cool I look forward to seeing what you find

Wonderful boats!

Thanks kindly your support is appreciated

Have a great day
