So I've got this 18' aluminum Starcraft.
Want to fish the Fraser River and figured I should really get a radio for it in case something goes wrong.
Pass the course and get my ROC-M (don't need a license or station ID in Canada).
Now I want to enable the DSC features so I need an MMSI.
I need a name for my boat in order to get an MMSI.
Geez. A guy just wants to fish.
So, thoughts so far
Leaky Hull - wife asked "what about after you fix the hull?"
AJOB - So I can tell people I'm on a job
Justwannafish - seem appropriate
No Name - Not sure the CG would like that one
BC1415187 - same as the registration number
Bean Counter - my day job
Lion Tamer - have to know Monty Python for this one, but I do have a hat....
Edit: reading http://forums.iboats.com/showthread.php?t=37803&highlight=boat+names&page=7 and getting a few more ideas.
Rehab
Piece of Ship
Gotta Pee - more because the bilge pump goes every 1/2 hour or so
Draggin Ballz - 2 downriggers on her
leaky Rivets
