WHY IS A SHIP CALLED "SHE"? Fleet Admiral Chester Nimitz said in a talk to the Society of Sponsors of the United States Navy; "A ship is always referred to as 'she' because it costs so much to keep one in paint and powder."
A boat is called a she because there's always a great deal of bustle around her. ..because there's usually a gang of men around...because she has a waist and stays. ..because she takes a lot of paint to keep her looking good. ..because it's not the initial ex-pense that breaks you, it's the upkeep...because she is all decked out...because it takes a good man to handle her right...
because she shows her topsides, hides her bottom and, when coming into port, always heads for the buoys.
