For those that may not know, we sold our other house(It had been on the market for 2 years). This put us in a position so we could purchase a boat. We purchased a boat, the day after we closed on the other house.

There is not a name on the back of the boat. I have a couple of names I was considering.

One is GLF

The second is Great Lakes Fisherman

Would I be in the wrong to name it Great Lakes Fisherman ?

What's everyone's thoughts on/for a name?

I think that Great Lakes Fisherman is appropriate. That is what you will be doing on it, fishing the great lakes. That's how I named my boat. Someone asked me what I do on my boat. I replied, "I don't know, drink beer and stuff." So that's what I named my boat, "BEER N STUFF". It seems to fit.:lol:

i think mike is right that would look pretty cool on the back with the fish and the state of michigan on the back it would make a nice looking boat even better. hope it treats you right

Pick out a name for it, but definately put the vinyl logo on the sides towards the rear quarter. ;)

It did not come with a trailer. I will be looking for a trailer in 2007. It has a 10' beam so I will need a wide load permit when I haul it.

Is your trailer as wide as the boat, or did you have your trailer made 8'6"?

If my wife let me buy a boat like that I would feel obligated to name it after her and go with the big Greatlakesfishermen logo on the side.
Fortunantly for me she new nothing of my boat when I bought it So I just use my site name as I have yet to figure out just what I want on the back of my boat

The trailer is 8' 6".

I spoke with a few trailer companies today. I got some prices and other information. What I found out....8'6" is the widest trailer they can make.
