a phrase that means "Having homosexual relations". Popularized in October 2009 by two airline pilots that over-shot their intended destination to Minneapolis and broke radio communication for almost an hour.

Working on the boat is a euphemism for masturbating. Our friend would give an excuse for not hanging out with us by saying that, "he was working on the boat". Eventually we got so bothered by his "working on the boat" that we went to his house and asked his mother and she told us that he was in the bathroom. However he didn't exit the bathroom for 45 minutes. Thus he was "working on the boat".

However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
