It is an imaginary animal created by Lewis Carroll.
The Hunting of the Snark
Lewis Carroll
Fit the First - The Landing
"Just the place for a Snark!" the Bellman cried,
As he landed his crew with care;
Supporting each man on the top of the tide
By a finger entwined in his hair.
"Just the place for a Snark! I have said it twice:
That alone should encourage the crew.
Just the place for a Snark! I have said it thrice:
What i tell you three times is true."

We used to call a small sailboat, a snark. It was bigger than a sailfish, and had a squared off bow.
