So the National Environmental Research Council decided to let the Internet decide what to name their massive new arctic research vessel. It looks like it’s ending as expected. Leading the polls is RRS Boaty McBoatface…
Some suggestions were serious but to quote the article, “But the bulk of entries were distinctly less sober. Aside from the leading contender, ideas included Its Bloody Cold Here, What Iceberg, Captain Haddock, Big Shipinnit, Science!!! and Big Metal Floaty Thingy-thing.”
Now let’s have a CF member do the same thing with their new boat this season!
