The traditional speech/prayer at the launching of a ship ends "and all who sail in her." I think even ships named after admirals and princes are called she.
There is, somewhere, an explanation of why a locomotive is "she". It is not politically correct and should not be read to your wife unless she is in an extremely good mood.
