What should we name our boat?

Rock of Ages LPS has a boat! This 1988 25' Boston Whaler Vessel is being donated by the National Park Service without a name. Help us think of a good name for it. Submit a name or add your support for a name by "voting" for it.

The final decision for the name of the boat will be made by the Rock of Ages LPS Board of Directors at the December 12 board meeting. Name suggestions and votes will be used to help make the decision, but the Board reserves the right to make the final decision so please submit serious names only (in other words we won't be naming it Boaty McBoatface!). The final name will be announced in December.

Rock Hopper
 
Love the rock hopper. It describes its exact purpose. Originally said in passing by Jeff Sivertson.

It’s a species of penguin.

Being a small boat it may look like it's skipping across the water and belonging to the rock well ..

From Thom Holden..... "Heather, can I still suggest a name for the new boat?
I'd like to recommend LAMPLIGHTER. The original LAMPLIGHTER was an 1850s schooner which became the first federal lighthouse tender on Lake Superior. She also had an accident in 1857 at Isle Royale when servicing the Rock Harbor Lighthouse, but was recovered and returned to service.
Thom Holden.
