John Vigor has a boat re-christening ceremony and some rules that go with avoiding the "jinx" of renaming a boat... If you google it, I'm sure some one has posted it on the web. If you're not superstitious at all...just re-name it and be done with it.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
