Bad Luck?

[Sean]

The name on my boat when I purchased her last year was, "Rita M", named after the previouse owners deciesed wife. I was going to re-name the boat but was warned by a few old salts that that would be taboo!!!
What do you guys think?
I was going to name the gaylick (gay lick, thats funny ;D ) version of "The Fisherman" but now I am not to sure.
What if I guess that her middle name was Marie, and name her the Rita Marie ?? Kinda salty sounding..
As always, thanks for your help/opinions
