Funniest boating term you've heard?
 
I was just reading the formula thread about a 311 to purchase...and someone in there said
"it would porpoise like a broke finned dolphin"
Has to be one of the funniest things I've heard:lolhit:
Anybody have some funny terms they've heard over the years?
I remember years ago Nort called everyone and everything a poodle...

My mother-in-law still calls my Formula a Cigar boat.
Forum rules permit me from letting you all know what I call her!

You've got a fast boat, because it looked like you were hauling azz when we passed you.
