I've been listening to MUDBONE by Santana and decided it meets
my standards for boat names that are songs. This one is an instrumental.
Disk 3 "Spirit" of a triple CD.

1. It's obtuse, and good for confusing anyone who doesn't know what it
means.

2. It has a special meaning.

3. It is just plain weird enough that no one is like to duplicate it on the
transom
of a boat, and...

4. It is one of the best pieces of music I know. Good for getting the
whole crew
doing the petroglyph dance on the foredeck.

I think I'll name my next boat [that is big enough to dance on ] "MUDBONE"

Anyone got any other good boat names that are songs?

1 point for a good one. 1 lash for a lame one.

Wouldn't this imply navigational incompetence?

Our former boat was named after an aria in an opera by the same
name..."Rusulka"...which in Russian and Hungarian means "water witch".....

Not in Hungarian.

I really like Santana but have not heard this.

One thing to keep in mind about a boat name, it must be easy to say &
hear over the radio. I think MUDBONE would qualify.

At the risk of a lash:

Blue Note
Canto (name of a Mason 43 owned by some friends of ours)
Capella (also the name of a star IIRC)
Arpeggio
Dol Sea (a stupid pun, I personally would never use this)
La Forza Destino (a very successful Gary Mull maxi of the 1970s)

Since it's Sunday... Amazing Grace.


There is a boat here on the lake named Sanatana.

Saw a boat "Parrothead" with hailing port, "One Particular Harbor."

Others seen:

Dream Weaver (Gary Wright)--lame
Why Don't We Get Drunk (and Screw) Buffett--lame
Offshore Bank (of Bad Habits) Buffett--lame
La Danse de la Vie (Beausoliel)
Jolie Blon (traditional Cajun)

My suggestions:

Infinite Tamboura (Rusted Root)
Dm Rant #147 (Fonn Mhor)

When I was rigging my boat for single handing I was very tempted to name
it, "ONE ALONE" from the Desert Song by Sig Romberg. "Pneuma" won out
though. I liked the name for an air powered vessel. Still like "ONE
ALONE"
