Joey's Boat

According to the new 2002 version of the "Friends" Trivia Game, the name of Joey's boat was the Mr. Beaumont, for anyone out there who was confused with the spelling.

New in 2002?

That just shows the trivia game got the spelling wrong, Kathy. :)

We know that the name is spelt "Bowmont" from the closing credits.

It's like Greene vs. Green only no sane human being cares that much about a name of a boat on a bloody sitcom...

It's newer than the first trivia game I bought 2 yrs ago. How do you know the credits didn't spell it wrong? ~~~ Kathy

HAHA the never-ending debate. I have to say though...I'd be more inclined to trust the credits spelling over anything else except the writers comments or the script itself. Credits are closer to the source :)

Maybe not. Nobody is perfect. I still believe it SHOULD be spelled "Beaumont" even though the "credits" spell it "Bowmont", which is still under debate on if it was actually spelled wrong there, as well. Bowmont is so redneck and stupid. Beaumont is classier. I wouldn't want my boat to have something stupid like "The Mr. Bowmont" on the back of it. ~~~ Kathy

true but which one is funnier? :) I think we need someone to find the script. I suck at spelling anyways so if someone asked me to spell it I'd probably make up a 3rd version.

It's a fictional name, devised by the writers of the show.

This means that the closing credits are correct by definition.

For the record, the English spelling of the past tense of spell is SPELT....spelled is the Americanization of the word.

Also kerb vs curb

colour vs color (and most other words that end in "or" in the US)
