I read an article today on superyachts - more than 23 metres- and
how they're prone to being robbed by pirates and the like and
came to discover that Eric has one of 39 metres. Anyone care to
guess it's name?

I just tried looking up the name of EC's yacht in his bio, but couldn't find an actual name used.  He just called it either the boat, or the ship a lot of the time.  I did find this paragraph, though, where he describes paying for this yacht, which he describes as, "a seriously beautiful craft, and leagues ahead of anything else I have seen on the water."
 
Here's what EC wrote, "For the first time in my life I had to borrow money to pay for something and I wasn't very comfortable with that.  Throughout my life, I had always bought everything outright, probably a reaction to my childhood, where everything was paid for in installments, "the never-never" as it was known back then. Luckily, I had a tour coming up, which we had named the "tour to end all tours," as it covered the world, and which should establish, for a little while at any rate, some semblance of solvency.  The tour would start in April 2006 and go until April 2007, and I was quietly quite excited about it.  It had been a long time since I had toured at that level, and it would probably be the last time, too."

I think it's called 'Unplugged", isn't it? I seem to remember seeing  that 
somewhere but I may be wrong....

It's only the name of a yacht people !  I had some sensible
emails offering the name Signe but 2 people that had to turn
this into a multiple email affair that went along the lines of
" It's the Blue Guitar" - "Sorry that's not what i have" - " No,
i'm informing you that it's the Blue Guitar" - " My info came from
an article in the UK paper the Telegraph, you can dispute it with them"
- " I know people that have seen him sailing on the Blue Guitar, what else
would he call it".  Anyway, it may or may not be called the Unplugged.
Here's a link i found to the story i read.
