8. It is bad luck to name a ship for an engaged woman
this will make the ship jealous.

12. NAME CHANGE
It’s bad luck to change the name of a boat. but if you have to: write the soon-to-be-exorcised name on a piece of paper, fold the paper, and place it in a small cardboard or wooden box. Burn the box. Scoop up the ashes and throw them into the sea on an outgoing tide. If you live on a lake, do it at night and only during a new moon. River dwellers should send the ashes downstream.

19. To name the boat with a word ending in "a" is bad luck



EDIT: And there's more to it
