littlesprite Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Orca is a killer whale (which is actually a dolphin) anyhow it's a large vicious predator, so the smaller version should be Piranha which is a small vicious predator. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawsOrca Posted April 15, 2015 Author Share Posted April 15, 2015 Ok Guys. I've registered Jaws with the Broads authority. First price to Grace (Another beer/wine when we eventually catch up!). Some good ideas though. I liked the "Nipper"/"Pirana" ones lol but Jaws is probably fitting! I'll have to get some yellow barrels when Jaws is being towed behind.. geez this is getting so tacky! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deebee29 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I'll have to get some yellow barrels when Jaws is being towed behind.. geez this is getting so tacky! Don't forget the breathing air cylinder and harpoon Alan 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExUserGone Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Call it 'Dangleberry' a great name for a tender behind. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baitrunner Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I was going to suggest Och Aye so Iain could pronounce it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBill Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 How about 'Min-Orca' 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeoffandWendy Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 It matches your user name Alan, so good choice. Don't forget the bottle of Champers, to officially name Jaws! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gracie Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I am well chuffed you chose Jaws Alan and thank you for the offer of beer and wine when we meet up but seeing as I went to all that trouble racking my blonde brain to come up with the name, I would have thought the least you couild do was offer me a free holiday Only kidding Lol, it would be my pleasure to have a drink with you any day of the week Grace 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeoffandWendy Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 There wouldn't be enough room on board Orca Grace for all your shoes. Lol. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawsOrca Posted April 16, 2015 Author Share Posted April 16, 2015 Lol i do like the idea of the shark teeth on the front! I dread to think what people will think though! Grace, erm geez free holiday.. I'll have to watch how you drive a hire boat first! You could try my parents too.. They have a nice dual steer boat so you can sit up top and sunbath (and more space for shoes lol) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gracie Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Excuse me, there is nothing wrong with my helming thank you very much, just because the odd boat, bank, tree and sailie thingy get in MY way it's hardly my fault now is it? Seriously, I don't think I've actually hit anything (yet) Lol, forget Orca I like the idea of your parents Boat, sunbathing, helming with a glass of something nice all at the same time sounds right up my street Grace p.s Definitely put shark teeth on Jaws, I'm sure most people will think it's cool and if they don't, just look away, simples 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawsOrca Posted April 16, 2015 Author Share Posted April 16, 2015 Geez you have got me thinking now how I can put shark teeth on the poxy dinghy!! grr lol I'll probably get some pics of my parents boat this weekend lol it is nice to sunbathe on.. I must admit although Orca's hardtop is good for the "typical british summertime" its a shame for the nice day in june (or april gone). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendel Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 you need an awning for the dinghy, colour grey - with the shark teeth painted or printed on it (and a fin half way along sticking up) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baitrunner Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Alan, Look no further.... I am sure someone in the UK must do something similar? http://www.ebay.com/bhp/flying-tiger-decals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawsOrca Posted April 16, 2015 Author Share Posted April 16, 2015 Lol they actually look quite good.. Dave did say he wants similar! I don't think vinyl would stick to the pvc (and if it did it would probably come off when it's let down) ... I'll maybe see if I can find or make template and we can spray it on.. or make up a PVC pattern and stick it on.. (Maybe.. just maybe I can put a fin on the outboard too...) can't believe this lol I've not actually used this dinghy yet! (Infact I've not even seen it since I brought it year ago!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
