The way I initially remembered it is that port and left are both four-letter words.
 
Face the bow. Look left. That’s port. Look right. That’s starboard.

It’s just what it is.

Not really - if you're not on the boat and look left, you're not looking at the boat. But the point is just knowing rather than having to remember which is which.

None of which really should be discussed in a joke thread, so....

Perhaps he should have specified that you should be IN the boat, looking at the bow. But I thought that was intuitively obvious to the most casual observer.

My first CFI said, “Port wine is red, so port is red. That’s how you remember.”

I'm not a dad, but sometimes, probably because of my age and adorable nature, someone will ask me to tell a dad joke. Here's an example I sometimes use:

Usually I'm not asked to provide further jokes.

My favorite dad joke backfired on me spectacularly.

My two nieces, back when they were 8 or 9, visited one weekend.

I hit them up with the classic: “What’s brown and sticky?” (The answer is, “a stick!”)

One said. “Ewww!”

The other said, “Syrup!”

I said,”No! It’s a…wait…that’s actually really good!”
