Description: The naming of possessions has a long history, from which the names of ancient warships may be among the earliest examples. Today we are surrounded by objects that have been named by their owners as a way to ascribe personality, advertise ownership, or simply ease identification. Boats, cars, houses or even computer hard drives are named. But though a car might be Old Bessie, a beach house Sun Spot, or a hard drive Big Mac, you are unlikely to see the name visually displayed on the object, and even when the name appears, it is unlikely to have a deliberate design style. Boat names are the exception. Their visual representation in often an integral part of the identity of the boat and its owner, and this is truer today than ever. Contemporary pleasure-boat names range from family namesakes to funny nicknames and from concrete to conceptual. One might be the fourth version of the same name, another an ephemeral ID utilized between owners.
