In Uncharted 3: Drake’ Deception, Drake falls into the hands of Rameses, a Yemeni pirate hired by main antagonist Marlowe to hunt him down. He holds Drake aboard his ship, named “The Seaward”, which he must escape in one of the game’s biggest set-pieces.

If that name sounds inappropriate and even familiar, that’s because this is likely a reference to a joke from the acclaimed sitcom Arrested Development.

In the show, character Gob (played by Will Arnett) owns a yacht named “The Seaward,” which he later changes to “C-Word.” As is hilariously typical of this clever series, it becomes a running gag full of double entendres.
