According to the Probert Encyclopedia of Slang, Man O' War is London Cockney slang for a bore. But I don't know what meaning of "a bore" does it refer to. I'm not a native speaker and checked it in Google Translate and it gives me several meanings:
- a boring person
- a wire
- a clearance
- drilling
- something boring
- caliber
- a saw
- a vein
- a shaft/wall

Does anyone which meaning does this refer to?

>What is a Portuguese man o` war?

The failure lies not in google translat as so often, but in two meanings of the same word, homnym.
