Pirate Names

I have bestowed upon me a pirate nickname. It is Dolphin Striker. Among the friends I take out on my H16 we have pirate nicknames such as Jib, Superlube and Catbox. I need more fascinating pirate nicknames that are parts of the boat or some object associated with the boat. Feel free to provide and explain what each part is!

I was thinking sheave would be a good one...
