Cutting the dinghy in half

My brother is building us a dinghy to take with us. It is a B and B Yachts design. It is constructed of plywood and epoxy, and then painted. It is a "nesting" model, which means it can be taken apart into two halves and the front half stored in the rear half, so as to take up less space on the fore deck. We went up to his house the other day and took it for a little spin in the lake before we cut it in half. You don't build two halves and then put them together. Instead you build a complete boat, then cut it in half, then finish the two ends. It seems strange to cut a perfectly good boat in half. But if you are going to make an omlet, you have to break some eggs. When it is done the inside will be white and the outside will be red. We are discussing names for it right now. I think it should be named "The Rose". So it would be The Rose of Sharon. Sharon thinks that is to corny. Any suggestions?
