Craigan,
I think those letters are decals; you can just peel them off. The problem is going to be that the gel coat will have been preserved under the letters and you'll still see the old name... You might be able to buff some of it out or wax the rest of the boat and it should help. Funny thing is, we don't even have Snook up here; people always asked me about that crazy name...

If they're the vinyl as BGA says, use a heat-gun ON LOW sparingly and a plastic spatula...be ready to use some 3M oxidation remover (or similar) as mentioned above

After you remove the letters, I think there is some kind of voodoo stuff you are supposed to go through before christening the boat with its new name.

There's a whole ceremony you have to go through on the re-naming. See here: http://boatsafe.com/nauticalknowhow/rename.htm

Might be easier to ice down a few of your favorite brew, load it aboard your new craft, idle along your favorite waterway, breathe in the life you're given and appreciate it all...how could bad vibes penetrate all those good vibes...
