Confusing dive boat names

[Anthony Appleyard]

I am in England. In a television program I saw a USA-based dive boat named "Depth Charge": likely confusing if there is an explosives scare in the area.

You do notice that some people either do not think about (or do not care) how their boat name is going to come across when they are calling it out three times in a row on the radio.

Names like "Never Mind," "Goin' Down," and "Guys" come to mind.

Some moron here in Montauk NY has a boat named "Rescue Me".I often wonder if the Coast Guard have ever told him to change it.

Based on that logic, you'd prob have a real problem diving off this boat....

I have seen more than a few named "Muff Diver"

Some other PA town names - Blue Ball, Intercourse, Paradise, Bird-In-Hand, Climax

I wanted to name mine the vessel "On Fire"
'This is the vessel On Fire asking for a radio check"
Ok maybe not a great idea. I think I'll call the next one "Radio Check"

On a related note, my buddy's boat is named "Down Syndrome" mostly to annoy his girlfriend who thinks the name is offensive and unfunny.

My friend's boat is Dirty Oar... when I get mine, it will be Filthy Oar....
