Hey all, for those of you who sometimes frequent Cafe Toonzone, you may have come across my somewhat pleading thread concerning a physics boat project. Well, one of the hardest parts, the theme, has been solved, and it's such an obvious choice: Batgirl. But, the newest problem, which I'm at a loss to solve, is what to name my boat! I would really appreciate any and all suggestions. And to help with thoughts, here's what the boat and I should look like: The boat will have drawings of Barbara Gordon, Batgirl and Oracle(the Oracle image not Babs) on it. That's what I've so far for the boat, I'm not sure if I should put a bat symbol anywhere, a clocktower, etc. As for me, I plan on buying a simple black bikini and using yellow material to have a bat symbol go across the chest area, and then have a belt like thing around my waist with another bat symbol on the front. And of course my Batman earrings,lol. Thanks in advance!

This may seem overly simple, but does something like "The Barbara" work?

It could...of course, then I may always think of a boat when I see the name, especially when it's Barbara Gordon. Also....if I sink, I don't think I want to associate good ol' Babs with sinking, ie, failure....which reminds me, I should practice what to do IF I were to sink. I could smile, throw myself overboard, give a thumbs up, high five, etc., as I and the boat go down,hehe.

Hmmm...eenteresting. Can we see pics when it's done?

A name like "The Ocean Oracle" could work, I suppose...or find a fun acronym that "SOS" could stand for. :)

Actually, I think I'm kind of fond of "Caped Cruiser", kinda reminds me of the corniness that is so awesome in the olds Batman 60's series. And if I was doing more of an Oracle theme, I would properly go for an acronym for SOS....See Oracle Sink. But I'm doing more of Batman/Batgirl, since the dorks in my class wil be like...."who's Oracle?"....I would use Bat Boat, except that it's just such a darn obvious choice...and for some reason that makes me want to not choose it, anywhoo, Caped Cruiser made me laugh, it's stuck in my mind now. Thanks for all the suggestions! And yes, I will have pics up after I sail on Tuesday, and let's hope none of the pics show me sinking!
