Name the Boat Contest!

March 9, 201319 CommentsThe Captain's BlogBy Captain Tom Ohaus

AU’s new North River 30 footer is under construction in Oregon. It’s going to be another beauty based on our original design. We’re expecting delivery just in time for the season and we’re looking for a name. Keep your suggestions coming in, because the person with the winning suggesting will receive a personalized embroidered Angling Unlimited jacket! We’ve posted the suggestions we’ve received so far and we’ll be updated as new ones come in. A final decision will be made by April 1 – Captain Chuck’s birthday. Send your suggestion here. Only one submission per person.  Our current boats are named Aquila, 7th Sun, Loon, Skute, Shearwater, Larus and Ouzel.  The boats we just sold are named Gannet and Kestrel.

    Just call it “Sam and Hal”

    “Nevis Nemo”

    Or for those of us who didn’t take the sea sickness advice you provided, you could call it “Up-Chuck”

    In the spirit of naming your boats after birds how about “Cuervo”, the native american word for Crow.
