What would you name your boat if you had one?

I have one..or at least I had one until my divorce this year... and it was named after a song by Fairport Convention

Our boat.... a 70 foot... Narrow boat

None of our boats ever had names. I guess we just never got around to naming them. I might have gone for "Ship Happens", because, in my experience, a lot of "ship" happens when you're out on a boat. I remember referring to our boats on several occasions as "What is wrong NOW, you #@$!&*%$???", so we probably should have named it that.

As they say, the two happiest days of a boat owner's life is the day he buys it and the day he sells it.....
 
The first kayak I ever I built was a plywood beast, it was 12' long and nearly 4'wide. It was flat topped and looked like a freighter so I called it the Edmund Fitzgerald after that big ore freighter that sank in a storm on Lake Superior. Back in those days you needed a license to use a marine hand held radio so I got issued a federal radio license for the ship Edmund Fitzgerald.
