I need everyone's help. Our company is going to have our boats at the LA show and we need to come up with model names for the two boats. We need them to relay class and elegance. Please help in coming up with the names. My brain is fried and I cant think of anything right now.
This is the 20'er

That's amazing! Stunning boats, both of them! :cool: :cool: :cool:
I worked as a carpenter for years, and it still completely amazes me that people can do this with wood! Not that I can afford it, but what is the going rate for one of these?

The boats are built in Thailand in our factory and shipped over here.

About the same as a similar sized fiberglass boat with equal options.

Guy Lambardo [Not sure how to spell his name] used to race old chriscrafts and used to drive a real nice one to Jones beach theater to meet his band He was well known for having a real love for those boats. Those of you who don't know him . His band always brought in the new year. His last name might be a good name for one of your boats. Hey what was the name of the boat that the little rascals raced against on a lake. I think the drivers name was waldo I think I remember Waldo telling Darla the name of the boat on that show

Hampton and Nantucket
those boats remind me of vintage pictures i've seen of New Yrok harbor.
I also like Savanah but can't think of a secondary name.
Whats the dry weight including trailer?

Havent weighed them yet, but we estimate that the 20'er will weigh somewhere around 4000lbs (including trailer) and the 26'er will weigh somewhere around 5500lbs (including trailer). That is dry with no gas. Could be way off, but that is what we are guessing. To unload them, we took two 2 ton crains and it was able to lift the big one no problem w/o trailer.

It's a tough one , since most of the names suggested were used by many .
examples ; Coronado [ Century ], Hampton [ Larson ] Nantucket [ Silverline ]
Catalina [ Catalina ], Monterey [ Monterey] etc.....

When I see those boats I think Italian/French Riviera. Actually, F the French, make it an Italian name!
To name a few (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italian_Riviera) :
Portofino
Savona
Sanremo
Ventimiglia
Bonassola (Now that is just a funny name, I don't care who you are)
Corniglia
Andora

No Two K's comes from my name Keith Keegan But I do live about 5 miles from K&K They have been there for years Do you know if they ever built boats there cause they have some molds that been sitting for years It looks on the style of early 24 superboat They look shot from weather

with a reference to my skateboard roots and where these boats come from:
