Top 10 Boat Names in the US

Miss My Money and Wetted Bliss are this editor’s picks, but AquaHolic is the top of the list in the US. SW
What's in boat name? It's hard to deny taking a guess at the meaning of a name painted across a boat's transom - it can reveal much about the personality of a boat owner. But like the wave tops constantly in motion, the fluid nature of boat names is also often a sign of boater's changing lives.

Have you started fishing? 'Reel Crazy' may be for you. Recently divorced? 'Alimony' says it all. Have kids in school? 'Tuition' says it best.

Regardless of ever-changing lifestyles, marital status, careers or family, choosing a name can be difficult. To help boaters with this task, Boat Owners Association of The United States (BoatUS) has a list of over 8,500 boat names given by boaters across the country over the last 20 years. The complete list can be found at BoatUS.com/boatgraphics/names.

The national boat owners group has announced its Annual List of Top Ten Boat Names, which it has tracked since 1991. The list is assembled each year by the BoatUS Boat Graphics service that allows boaters to easily custom design and preview boat names online - without having to pay up front.

The top ten names are:

1. AquaHolic
2. Andiamo (Let's go)
3. The Black Pearl
4. La Bella Vita (The Beautiful Life)
5. Mojo
6. Island Time
7. Second Wind
8. No Worries
9. Serenity
10. Blue Moon
