As we know, each bomber has two crews, a port and starboard (or it had). Instead of calling then port and starboard call them Oberon and Oberoi for instance. Instantly 2 boats for the price of one.

Great lateral thinking PN! Next pair could be VICTORY and VICTORIOUS, but VICTORY would always have to be the off crew - and inevitably the "port" crew .....

As they spend most of their time submerged, who would know?

Not all of them apparently .....
