I think adding why the name helps.

First sib (Yam 380s) was called Weymouth Rover. Used to live in Weymouth and used the thing all over the place on safety covers.

1st rib (4.1m Rimini) came with the name Yoda so had to keep it.

Current toy (4.7m Zodiac) was named Nutkin, one of the family nicknames......

My boat is called the massive and its ironic!
Only the ex navy guys will get the joke as the massive was an imaginary ship (in some people's opinion) she was so big her sea boats had 4 funnels etc. her sister ship was the humongous and they were both exag (exaggeration) class ships.
If someone started bullshitting a dit about how big or fast something was, everyone would say....well when I was on the massive.....
