Discover Boating launched its first ever Best Boat Names Contest online, which runs from now until June 15 on DiscoverBoating.com. The contest, presented by Discover Boating and sponsored by BoatRenting.com and Forever Resorts, will award the individual with the most unique boat name a houseboat vacation package at a destination of his or her choosing.
“DiscoverBoating.com is becoming more and more of an interactive space, not only for the potential boat buyer, but for the boater looking to learn more about what he or she can experience on the water,” says Carl Blackwell, vice president of Marketing & Communications for Grow Boating Inc. and the NMMA. “We’re excited to launch the boat name contest because it’s a way we can engage visitors to DiscoverBoating.com and provide a forum for them to share their personal passions for one of boating’s great pastimes—a boat’s name.”
Contest entries are being accepted from April 23 through May 23. To enter, visit DiscoverBoating.com and add your most original and creative boat name to the list. Afterwards, from May 24 through June 15, DiscoverBoating.com visitors can view the names posted and vote for their favorites.
The grand prize winner, whose boat name is selected as the “most original,” will receive a three-day, three-night weekend getaway on a houseboat for up to six guests, provided by BoatRenting.com and Forever Resorts. The houseboat vacation includes airfare, fuel costs and an operator for the boat, and the winner may select from more than 10 Forever Resorts locations nationwide.
