Exactly correct! Literally it means "doing nothing" I think, but it has a much deeper and more romantic Italian meaning as you said. I know I've seen at least one other boat in my life with that name up on Lake Champlain years ago. Funny to find the name first, and then find the boat.
Some friends in Annapolis have a boat named "La Dolce Far Niente". Which they named just before they found out they were going to have twins (to add to the one child they had already). So much for doing nothing, eh?
They still have the boat and three great boys.
