Ours is definitely male too. Apart from anything else, who would want to be discovered inside a female? We do have standards! πππ

As no one else has said it yet, boats must be women. They are expensive to maintain both in money and time. They have a mind of their own. On the plus side, they are mainly beautiful and give a lot of pleasure. Tin hat ready!!! Exactly..my boat was all woman..I named her Patty Ann .... To refer to boats in the masculine is just so wrong.....

It's actually a lot more complicated than that. There are 78,000 pages. ETA it's almost as challenging as my "teach yourself to be a gigolo" book. It's really hard work. Ah ..... that's actually the weight as well.
Sabina H is sometimes a bit independently minded (polite for a bloody handfull) and resistant to being forced to go in a direction she dislikes but always a lady
I can second that John!! The big boat is Joyce the bathtub is the Vital Spark, both handle well but at times can be a right pain!! So definitely both ladies
