Never Rename a Ship

nce a boat is named and christened, the name should never be changed because it’s considered extremely bad luck.

Many believe (still to this very day!) that changing a boat’s name will bring misfortune on the ship.

A boat can be renamed only if certain protocols are fallowed: a bout must be de-named first by writing the boat’s current name on a piece of paper, fold the paper and placing it in the wooden box, which is then burned. The ashes are then scooped up and thrown into the sea!
