There's no question that Argos was the ship name, but http://www.dictionary.com lists the etymology of argon as from the Greek neuter of argos, meaning idle, or inert.

Seems to be some contradiction there.

Maybe ol' Jason named his ship in the manner of the "Ketch Some Zs" and "Lazy Daze" that I see in the slips.
Argo was the name of the shipbuilder.
