Dunno. I searched "thomas tank engine boat" figuring it would give me something appropriate for the thread. I kind of liked that one :^D
Old people think alike. Go figure. But I'm your junior...whatever that's worth.

Not bad, but I think Boaty McFloaty rolls off the tongue a bit better.

Given it's a research vessel perhaps 'Ship for Brains' would be more appropriate :awe:

Thanks! I was feeling creative.





I already have hedge clippers named Choppy McClip. Named them 8 years ago when yard-keeping with my daughter.

Nice. I would have literally LOL'd if that were Mr. Choppy McClip the Third."Honey? Please pass me Mr. Choppy McClip the Third."

The only things I ever name are stores I don't like. Dead Lobster, Sports Atrocity, etc. SA looks like it's going out of business though.

It's only a name, they should stick with it for publicity. And never ask the internet for anything serious ever again.
