Saw a MAMS (Manky Auld Motor Sailor) yesterday called Stonehenge.
My immediate thought was "Why?"

We named our last boat (a rather ugly Shetland 570) Mingin...
Someone we've met once or twice tried to name his fishing boat Shile of Pite but was gently coached not to (not sure if by wife or someone else!).
And my favourite - a wee sailing boat called Toynifrew. Backwards, in Glaswegian, that's "Wur effin' yacht"
Priceless.

Dont know if it is still there, but in 2006 there was a boat in Kip marina called, "Hayday"
This put a smile on my coupen, as years ago in Ireland I knew a builder who had a bad speach impediment and also had a small aeroplane, he had to make numerous emergency landings on beaches and in fields because of lack of fuel, he eventually lost his pilots licence for putting out emergency HAYDAY calls, /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif and I am not joking.

We used to race against a boat called "Dad's Pants"
Saw an angling boat leaving Dartmouth a while back called "She Likes it Rough" and later heard them calling Brixham Coastgaurd. Brixham's lady operator was having great difficulty controlling herself.

'She likes it Rough' Now belongs to Clint Swan of CRS Marine here on the river Blackwater.

name for our boat -thought of as hysterical and then rejected on 'not-quite-sober-reflection'.
"Sopi T Twank"...
Soo glad said vessel came with a venerable name.

In portsmouth a sailing / racing boat called "No Fear".
Apart from admitting a sad lack of imagination, it seemed also to be kinda tempting fate.......

There was a Bolero called 'Panty Thief' fortunately now renamed, and a yacht, I think out of Rothesay, called 'Buckie Lugger'.
