Memorable boat names

[Nostrodamus]

What boat names have you come across that have made you laugh or just made you think?
It may be that someone named a boat only to find that it meant something completely different in another country.
Ones I instantly recollect are
“CRIME DOES PAY” which always makes me wonder
“SEXY” my wife would refuse to use the radio with that boat name.

I liked the names of boats that were relevant to the companies that owned them..

Dark Horse - owned by Lloyds Bank
Running Water - owned by Southern Water
Bright Sparks - I can't remember if this was Southern Electric (or British Gas!)

2 unusual boat names we have seen in Holland (these boats had English names)

- 'Be Wise, Plug In' ??? some reference to shore power mishaps in the past ??

- 'Pippin of Poppin Green' imagine spelling that phonetically which no doubt you would be asked to do on a regular basis !

Ingotism - the boat of the Bank of England - even though we don't have a gold standard nowadays... It was an Oyster the time we we rafted up together.

There was a boat in the Ionian called 'Thanks Dad' which made me smile and one in N Wales called Zandav which always made me think of a toilet cleaner....

I have seen, on the back of a lorry, a large sunseeker type mobo called:

My Dixie Wrecked.

I expect it was too, - until he got the bill at the fuel pontoon...

Then there was the Bavaria 37 we looked at on the Hamble called Poletrix. Bit of further investigation showed it was owned by the owner of a lap dancing club of the same name..... SWMBO decided that it wasn't the one for us......
