First definition of a boat I heard after I purchased one was:

a boat is a depression in the water, lined with fibre glass, into which you throw money.

It's true but it's fun.

Boat Names :

Nemo

or as seen on one in Poole Harbour

'A Complete Waste of Money'

or on another in Lymington

'My Half of the House'

(current owner of 2 small boats (a 19 foot rib and 11 foot rib) from a long line of other ones too lol . Be careful boating is very addictive)

Excellent suggestions! Here are a few more including some minor elaborations:

Yet Another Material Object I Really Don't Need
The Blue One, Next To The Fish (hey, guys, it has to be complete!)
Pshwynkie's Wet Dream

There is only one name you can give a boat, only one name that would fit and at the same time show both a level of class and style that is matched by none:
