First, some background...

My brother and I used to spend hours - days - playing Turbo games back in the day. The time we spent together rank amongst my favorite memories and is one of the main reasons I love this console so much 20+ years later.

We recently decided to buy a boat together and today, as we were sanding/painting it, we thought it would be cool to name it, and name it to something related to the great times we had together with the Turbografx-16 and Turbo Duo. Kinda nerdy, yeah, but still fun.

We came up with a couple ideas, but I thought I'd see if you guys had any cool ideas. Here are a few ideas we had:

Bloody Wolf
Ninja Spirit
Hunting Dog (from Gate of Thunder)
Vic Viper

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Mathius


Keranu

Haha, Hunting Dog's a great boat name!

How about USS MEAT EATER?

What is the name of the boat Adol Christin is in on in Ys Book 1 that takes him to the land of Ys?

That would be pretty cool, because every time you go out on the water you can always wonder if you might just wind up there.  :D

This one made me laugh out loud. Not only is it hilarious, John is also my first name. I'll mention it to my brother.

We also thought it would be hilarious to name it "Jackie Chan's Action Kung Fu", simply for the absurdity factor.

Another idea was to name it "Bonk's Adventure" so we could call our next boat "Bonk's Revenge".

You guys came up with some great names. Keep 'em coming!

Glad you liked it.

If your brother doesn't want to use your name, perhaps painting "The Turboat Duo" or "The Turboating Duo" on the side would be a good compromise?

sheath

LEGENDARY! 

... wait, that one has been used recently.

Bonk! .. ..  No, that isn't what you would want from a boat. 

Adventure Spirit. 

Yup, that's the best I can come up with, just because it's the most often used words in the games.

I don't recall a name for the boat that Adol arrives in.....in any version of the game(though, atleast half the versions of Ys 1 have him shipwrecked on Esteria, rather then arriving by boat).

Call it the "multitap" if you are single and bring lots of girls on the boat.

Call it the "turbotap" if you are married.

Or Virgin Dream ;)

maybe Popful Holes?


Aren't boats suppose to be named after women?
How about one of the girls from Strip Fighter II?

Keith Courage

I would name it a name of a character in a game. Maybe Adol, Van, Sadler, or Belmont. Then again, if you named it Dogi(ys character) people would think you were naming it after that lame ass rap song. Teach me how to Dogi!

Sure would be nice as a name solely, but has less OBEY in it ;)

Jossshhhhh...Legendary TurboTrollX-16: He revenge-bans PCE Developers/Ys IV Localizers from PCE Facebook groups and destroyed 2 PC Engine groups: one by Aaron Lambert on Facebook, then the other by Aaron Nanto!!! Josh and PCE Aarons don't have a good track record together! Both times he blamed the Aarons and their staff in a "Look-what-you-made-us-do?!" manner (extortion/blackmail!), never himself nor his deranged, destructive, toxic turbo troll gang!

Supposedly boats have vaginas, so how 'bout Esty or Kokuru?

Last boat I named was called "Das Boot" but thats not really Turbo related hehe.

RISE FROM YOUR GRAVE!

Sorry for the necropost, but I was out on my boat the other day and realized I never told you guys what we named it, all those years ago.

*Drumroll*...






WAKE of THUNDER!

You may now go about your 2014 business.

That's awesome!  I recently re-did a 79' Correct Craft Ski Tique and have been thinking about slapping a video game related name on the back of it.
"You CAN'T prove Nulltard/DoxPhile caused ANY harm/damage/sabotage to PCEFX!! You have NO evidence he poached ANY members for his own failed PC Engine forum/site or was a conniving destructive saboteur! ZERO, ZIP, NADA!!! Nulltard did nothing wrong!"
