    If you like the Tiger Horse (the name does'nt sound familiar to me, has it re-named?) you may like these other fine examples of our retired coastal tugs...

    This is yacht refitting tugboat style. Lots of lumber and $$$!

    I have been on-board SS. Master, it's very original indeed. The Steam engine room reminds me of the nightmare known as "Das Boot".

    Here is "ebitibi", now Vancouver's favorite "booze boat", on a hot summer day you can hear it coming miles away with the music blaring.

    If it is a booze boat it probably is Abitibi!

    Took a double take on this post. One of our members, David Reames, was the captain of Que Sera... but that was a '124 Delta and has since been sold. Not sure if it was renamed. David's no longer pushing off docks, he's pushing paper as Camper & Nicholson's charter fleet operations manager.

    Sorry to veer off topic..

    No shortage of macho names out there.
    I heard that they do poorly chartering to female clientele, ever since a yacht’s name was successfully used as a legal defence.
    :D

    It's really a shame that some can't exercise a little more selectiveness (read: class) in naming their boats. I once saw a center-console named "In & Out Urge". The owner claimed it was because he kept the boat at an In & Out storage facility and called ahead when he got the Urge. One glance at the barely clad, society challenged women onboard his boat, suggested otherwise.

    Well, I think the one name that takes the cake would be the infamous "Tits" and her two tenders "Nipple 1" and "Nipple 2."

    She's long been sold and I think she's now named "Singha Lady."

    Money can't buy everything. ;)

    At least those names are the minority.

    Mind you, the delinquent side of me can appreciate the fun of flying in the face of convention and naming a yacht somewhat "improperly" but I think it's far more amusing to do so subversively. :cool:

    Wasn't she renamed Claire? She was renamed again since then?

    Last year I saw a 50 footer named "white trash", and ya, they were sitting on badly made lawn furniture, drinking wine from a box and gorging on a roasted chicken.
    I though to take a photo, but didn't as I heard they were packing. :eek:
