Question Dealer removes name from used boat

Quote:
...the superstitions about renaming watercraft - it's horribly bad luck... and if one wants to take on this great risk and in so doing, cast their eternal fate to the wind, the requsite 'renaming ceremony' involves numerous long and loud incantations whilst standing in the vessel...
So what happens when you buy a used boat from a dealership? The boat had a name, the dealer removes the name and next owner adds their own name. The boat has been renamed without the proper ceremony.

How do the spirits view this name change? Is the boat, the dealership or anyone cursed?

I may never buy a used boat from a dealer. Where's Miss Cleo's number, maybe she knows
