ship or boats has always and will always be female even the name of the ship is male (eg. King George VI) its some sort of a tradition ever since the first voyage of ship vessels.
its something mythical about it. My dad told me that there's something will 'live' in the ship since the starting of the build-up and all the way till it's finished. Even the launching day, they'll strap a bottle of liquor and give it a big swing to the ship's wall till its shatters into pieces. Some sort of ceremony so the ship will last long.
but its true. my dad has been involved with ships for more than 25 years. so he knows very well.
he's been into so many things.. scary things with ships. Remember there was one time our gov wanted to fix the 'tsunami' sensors around the offshore of northen of Sabah and Sarawak after the big hit? He's the one who's responsible 'drive' the ship to do that job. No one else dared to take up the risk. The estimation of work done was around 1 week, but something came up and the process took 4 weeks.
I'll story on more if anyone interested..
