Odd boat names

[PaulinVictoria]

So we have threads for good boat names, and some for shit boat names, but what about ones that are just, well, odd? Here's a starter, there is a boat docked in Victoria harbour called Clint, except it's on the boat in capital letters. If you squint a bit, it looks like CUNT, but even without that, Clint seems a bit random for a boat name.

Works ok here - FLICKING CLINT is even better

All depends on your perspective. I once got thrown out of a casino after getting into an argument with the croupier over what i thought was a very odd number

Now we need a thread about even boat names.

Don't forget irrational boat names.

 

[Brass]

And imaginary boat names.

Titanic was an odd name. Sounds like a disaster waiting to happen.

It wasn't before the iceberg. That forever changed the impression the word makes.

I would be intrigued by a more complex name, say a mixture of real and imaginary boat names.

You might use a programmable LED sign?

When I was a kid I was walking down the dock and I came up to a guy painting a name on the transom of his boat. The letters were laid out in a nice arc, well spaced with fancy font and he was almost done painting them in. It said Stcker Boat. I asked why the odd name, and he said his kids named it because they used to tie it up by a blackberry patch. I asked if sticker wasn't spelled with an "I" and he leaned back and looked and started cursing. I walked away quietly.

Like a misspelled tat only a bit easier to fix.

So not even a chuckle? Sloop, you should try the 10oz beers in the stemmed glasses. They are good and they encourage dry humor. But don't use a fork for your pizza if you don't want to.

I think you'll agree that beer isn't just beer. And, that Titanic is an odd name.

Oo.....waiting to use this one: Truffle Hunter.

That would be good on a Wally parked in Italy. Or an origami permanently anchored in BC.

Considering dogs and pigs were traditionally used to hunt truffles, it seems like a thinly veiled insult to the boat.

I think calling a dog a dog is not insulting. Calling a boat a dog or a pig is insulting.

Sorry - I seem to have been a 6 pack short of my usual extraordinary sense of humour that day - that's the second one I missed.

Must have been working too hard on my boat or something.
