4. What does the word mean?
There's a mariner's handbook around that clearly stipulates a person be extra careful when it comes to name your boat/ship. Don't give it a name that threatenes or makes the lake/sea/ocean/river angry. Case in point: Tiatanic.

in this case, the ocean was mad that someone mispelled "Titanic"

:P

13. It was from an episode of "Seinfield"
Jerry and Kramer were in a hospital balcony observing an operation. Kramer was eating some Jr. Mints and offered the box to Jerry who slapped it away and a mint went flying out and landed in the cut open body of a man the doctors were operating on. Funny stuff!

3. What a STOOPID and completely classless name for a boat...
Edited on Thu Aug-21-08 05:11 PM by jasonc
But I am glad he/she did it. It makes my job of identifying the drunk asshole all that much easier...


Yes, I know I am stereotyping here, but there is a lot of on-the-water experience behind it.

22. There's a dude on the river where I used to run my boat...
He was in his 60's, divorced, fat, bald, and a total pev. But he has a LOT of money, and he always had at least 4 or 5 very attractive women on his boat (a big-ass cigarette-type thing that screamed out his problems with ED) which was named....



wait for it.....

6. as a retired CG BMCS
I say.... it would be hard to ignore a distress call from that boat.


If I ever lose my mind and decide to get a boat, I would like to name it "The Vessel Calling" so all the stupid watchstanders would get it right.

21. Kids? Lunch?
That's definitely a combination for some sort of hilarious mishap that will take 30 minutes to sort out.
