There’s nothing a boat owner loves more than giving their vessel a fun, punny name. We’ve all probably heard “That’s What She Said” a million times in our lives, whether from “The Office” or in response to something in real life. If a fan of “The Office” gets a boat, then this might be the quickest and most obvious name for the ship in the world.
Of course, other than the fact that it’s a pun, there isn’t much else to say about this name. It’s a good name, but it will give people a little chuckle and then they’ll move on, forgetting it immediately. Just like any other pun, it won’t stick with them and they won’t remember it at all. Puns disappear, like a fart in the breeze.
The First Thing That Comes to Mind
Yes, you have to come up with a name for your ship if you want to take it out into busy waters. But, no, you don’t have to have a name that is really complicated. We’re a little surprised that the registration office allowed this to be a name, but it’s no better or worse than any other name for a boat, we guess.
Maybe the person who bought this asked their daughter what she wanted to name the boat, but she was only four. Still, it’s a better name than “Boaty McBoatface.” Ugh. We know the internet is a sorry, sad place, but even it should be able to do better than that. Don’t ask the internet’s opinion on anything, it’s going to be wrong.
You Bought ANOTHER One?
One boat is usually the right amount of people for a family. In a boat house that’s this big, there’s space for another one – a bigger vessel, perhaps, for when you want to have some friends over. But a third boat? Who in their right mind would buy a third boat when there isn’t even space in the house to keep it?
We’re not sure if boat fanatics are ever in their right minds, now that we think about it. Why would someone need three boats? They all seem to be well-made and kept in good condition, so it’s not like one of them is a lot older and had to be replaced. Don’t look at us, we don’t have any boats – we just like to talk about the names.
They Aren’t a Cheap Addition
Boats are a pricey way to expand your relaxation options – no one can truthfully tell you otherwise. If someone comes up to you and wants to sell you a boat for less than a thousand dollars, that person is trying to scam you. For a lot of people, boats are one of the most expensive things they’ll ever own, except for maybe their homes.
Even then, if they live in an apartment and have a boat waiting for them at the marina, it could be that floating piece that is the bigger hit to the finances. It’s a nice turn of phrase for an item that likely cost five figures at the least, but we don’t think it has anything to do with boats or water. Other than sails being blown.
Feel the Breeze
When you’re out on the water, it can seem like it’s just you and the power of the elements. The spray of the sea on your clothes, the wind gusting through your hair. It makes you feel ALIVE. You want to point the nose of your vessel toward the horizon and keep going until you discover a tiny island. Maybe there’s a tribe of locals.
Maybe there’s buried pirate treasure! Maybe there’s nothing, which means that you can make your mark on the place before anyone else. Sometimes, however, it’s not just the fresh air that you inhale. If there are other people on the ship, then it’s not just the spray of the sea that you might get on your clothes. Well, it’s not like the smells will linger.
