Perhaps you should have named it "The Office".

There was a boat sailing out of Maine called "Say Again." It caused
considerable problems on the radio. Cute, but might be deadly in case
of an emergency.

Also knew of a lawyer's boat named "The Courthouse." His secretary
would tell clients that he was not in because he was at the
courthouse.

How about calling for a boat named UH OH II on the radio? Saw a power
boat with that name in the Alligator Pungo Canal.

TOTALLY WASTED is a name I'm not sure I like that I saw on another
power boat. I'm not sure about LAWMEN from Baltimore either. I liked
another trawler QUE PASA? better.

We met some newly retired folks whose boat was named GREAT ESCAPE.
