The winter is a relatively quiet time for boaters in the cold weather climates. So, Boaters Insurance.org has some news regarding boat names and boat shows.

Boat Names

The results have been tabulated at Boat US for the ten most popular boat names of 2009. The not so scientific list was assembled by the graphic team at Boat US. They maintain a list of over 8500 names boaters can select from when ordering a name to be put on decals to be affixed to their boat. Here are the top ten selections for 2009.

• Second Wind
• Seas the Day
• Lazy Daze
• Jolly Roger
• Bail Out
• On the Rocks
• Pegasus
• Serenity Now
• Namaste
• Comfortably Numb

Two observations- The name Aquaholics was in the top ten since 2002 but it didn’t appear in 2009. Bail Out is a first time top ten finalist (Boat US has been keeping this list since 1991).

Boat Shows

February is a month for boat shows. In fact, there are no fewer than 44 boat shows in February! Boats will be showcased in St Louis, Miami, Washington D.C., Detroit, Dayton, Duluth, Omaha, Philadelphia and other cities across the country.

Boat Insurance

Make sure you have an adequate amount of boat insurance. Avoid ruining the joy of boating and purchase the best coverage you can afford now matter what kind of vessel you have. There’s no cost for peace of mind. That’s what the right boat insurance provides.
