We lived in Norway for 6 years, and the funds partly paid for the boat.

Opinions?
I like the Norwegian thinking. How about these:

"Ha Det Godt" - That way you avoid the "Bra" with relatively the same meaning.
"Skal"
"Likke Du Det" - My favorite one
and you could always go with "Uff Da"

Good suggestion Liquid on"Ha Det Godt". Hadn't thought of that one. I'll run it by the First Mate. It's short enough to fit on the 242 also. Has the ski pole on the upper deck cutting off some of the area, so the name has to be short.

That was the point of no translation. The same thing you'd do if you saw his boat... you'd say, "what the hell does that mean?" and then look it up!

And then, "good name"

I aim to please.

"Vil du ha det aller beste"? I like the sentiment but I think it's a little long.
