FirstBoat launches Boat Name Machine

By IBI Magazine

FirstBoat, an online resource for new and experienced boat owners, has added a new boat naming tool to its website at www.firstboat.com. The new Boat Name Machine, which is free for all visitors, provides more than 10,000 randomly generated names to assist boat owners who are finding it difficult to name their boat. If a visitor doesn't like the first name they see, they can keep clicking until they find one that is suitable.

"We are pleased to offer this free tool to firstboat.com visitors," says site founder Andrew Canepari. "It is one more way we can help boat owners find all the boating information and products they need all in one place."

Launched in 1999, FirstBoat claims to be one of the largest independent websites for recreational boaters. It has a classified section featuring more than 100,000 boats for sale, and offers a large selection of marine products, services and information for boating enthusiasts around the world. FirstBoat, which is based in Newington, Connecticut in the US, is part of a network of boating websites developed and run by Andrew Canepari, owner of NauticalSites.com.
