What you you choose let me know if you want if you want some lettering, I have some nice dark blue cast vinyl which I got for our boat, I have plenty left over so no charge.

I agree, DAVE is very good name!
If you decide to choose a name which is a play on words ("Toys For Buoys") or a long name ("Chocolate Starfish"), be very sure you know the phonetic alphabet and can rattle it off clearly as the Coast Guards will surely ask you to spell the vessels name.
I did not rename my yacht and I always have to spell it phonetically whenever I call the Coast Guard. Sometimes I use the international call-sign, it is easier.

Good point lenseman so 'Bob' could be promoted after all

No problem, I should make the effort and do more boat names as they are nice to do.

It's been decided and 'Lisilou' wins out so if you see us, give us a wave (whilst keeping a wide berth til we get used to her at least)
