Naming your boat is one of the best things about being a new boat owner. But it’s never easy. It took me weeks to come up with a suitable name that was a reflection of my personality and meant something to me.

Since getting my pontoon boat, our dog comes with us all the time. He even has his own dog ramp to climb on board with!

During the naming process, my family and I racked our brains to come up with a boat name for a dog lover. We ended up choosing something that really worked for us and are really happy with.

But we did have a spreadsheet left over of all the other dog related boat names we had come up with.

I thought it a shame to waste them, so wanted to share them with you today.

You can see our list of boat names for dog lovers below – feel free to use any of them when naming your boat after the dog in your life!
