          Could it also be "what is the name of that English ship"?

          But "what is the name of that English boat" is not anymore...

          skip = ship
          båt = boat

            At full speed I can't hear the "det" at all. Is that normal or is it a problem with the text to speech?

              There is a det there but its as it would be in normal speech its not quite a full t on the end. If it was dette you would hear the extra 'te' and 'de engelske skipene' or 'en engelsk skip' would sound totally different.

                may be used also "what is called that english ship?" ?

                That's not a very natural-sounding word order.
