If these are dad jokes, what would a funny name that isn’t a “dad joke” be like?
I’m not sure it’s possible to humorously name a boat without getting punny in the dad way.
Unless it’s a yacht or some other super expensive kind, then you can do villainous puns in stead like naming it what less egotistical people could have spent the money on, I guess 🤷
“College Fund” would be an example of BOTH simultaneously IMO
I guess you could also give it a Gen Alpha slang name that someone old enough to be a dad is too old to understand.
Like, call the boat “Low Key Salty”. Simultaneously a play on words and Gen Alpha slang. Best if used for an ocean-going boat docked in the Florida keys.
They’re all great except the last one. The “Cirrhosis” one went over my head but I looked it up, it’s excellent. The last one, “aqua holic”, isn’t a dad joke unless I’m missing something.
Alcoholic?
They already said they owned a boat, so I assumed this was implied.
The “-holic” suffix is regularly used to mean addict. For example, workaholic. Yes, it originated from “alcoholic”, but it’s commonly used now. So the boat’s name just means “water addict”, there’s nothing punny about it.
It’s a play on alcoholic
Since aqua sounds a bit like alco, the implication is that the boat owner likes both water and booze
IMO that’s a stretch, they aren’t even close to homophones.
Being an aquaholic can lead to cirrhosis of the river.
Prawn star was the best I’ve seen
I named my kayak Whoops, but put the letters on it upside down.
Myoobs ? I’m lost
It reads Whoops when you flip.
ahaaa ! I get it ! cheers
This would be even more epic if you do manage to flip it one day
I have flipped it lmao. Only like twice, but it was fuckin hilarious each time.
I saw one in Amsterdam called Koekblik (biscuit/cookie tin).
If you’re not dad naming your boat, you’re doing it wrong.
I like Dexter’s Slice of Life.
One dude had “Hail Seaser”.
From Dexter
My dad’s friend had a boat named the “Oy Vey”
Should’ve been oy bay.
what does it mean ?
It’s just a Yiddish phase meaning something like oh, crap or ay yi yi.
It’s an expression that basically means “oh dear”, or “oh no”. https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/oy_vey
wakey wakey
Had a friend whose dad named his boat The Other Woman.
Where’s the C-Word?
I don’t know about you, but I’ve never seen a boat named “Cunt” OR “Cancer” 🤷
The Seaward was just one of so many good jokes in AD seasons 1-3.
