The trouble is that:
a) Latin was used for a long period of time, in a wide variety of different places.
b) It then went extinct before being revived later on.

I have no particular expertise on this – indeed, I have little knowlege of it at all – but I wonder if one could choose different sets of vocabulary and grammar from the different places and periods of time (or even mix several sets alltogether), since the language was “synthetically” revived, and any grammar would inevitably be based on ancient literature. Just a drawn-out thought^^

Victus means nourishment, way of living (derived from vivere, to live). The English word “victual” (food supplies) comes from that, so does the French word “victuaille”.

Given the position of the boat in relation to the house, maybe it should be called E-victus.

Ok, here’s what my degree in Latin is telling me:
Winner in Latin is ‘victor,’ unless the winner is female, in which case it’s ‘victrix.’

In Latin, victus is the perfect passive participle of the verb vinco, vincere, vici, victum, meaning to conquer, win, defeat.
This means that in Latin, the name of this boat is literally “conquered one,” or, loser. FAILURE, even (with some creative license).

Victis would have to be the plural dative or plural ablative adjective (or substantive adjective) in the case of first and second declinsion nouns, or else a third declinsion genitive singular adjective (depending on whether the second i were long or short).

‘Victus’ does not mean ‘food’ in any language I’m familiar with.

Whether or not this is meant to be a reference to the Latin is debatable, but if it is, epic fail in the naming department. (Though apt, considering this ship’s fate.)

tl; dr: in real Latin, this boat’s name is basically FAILURE.

No, in that would be plural
It is infact winner
or it can be a participicle, which would be translated as “the one who overwon”

If the boat was called “victis” then it would be winner in Latin. So close to an epic win.
As it is it means food. I guess that fits with delivers.

Ah, I love Failboat. It never fails to fail.
