    Didn't know that it was. Where does this superstition come from?

    It is if you do not pull it out of the water and then re-Christen it. A good time to do it if it is a big boat is when you pull it out to scrape the bottom of barnacals or repainting, etc. Then rename it, Christen it, and drop it in under it's new name.
