sealegs 0 Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 the article lists it as Really Stupid Boat Names but I think they are really funny and some well thought out names that brings a smile to your dial... Maybe you know a few more to add? http://messingaboutinboats.typepad.com/ ... pid-b.html Link to post Share on other sites

Bimini Babe 0 Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I think it was on the same website I read some time ago about a rowing boat in London called "Pony off a Lemon". It's essentially Cockney rhyming slang for "sh*t off a shovel", i.e. very fast. sh*t = Crap = "Pony & Trap" in Cockney Shovel = Spade = "Lemonade" in Cockney... hence... Pony off a Lemon.

Rats 28 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 My favorite is FUJIMO, Jerry told Jane he was going to build another race boat and once she had stopped throwing pots and pans around his mind was well and truly made up...FUJIMO stands for F....U Jane I'm Moving Out ! But rather nicely it works vice versa for Jerry too. Link to post Share on other sites
