Aha! Does that mean you were reading it in a book that was on your toilet tank?
My impression is that an old-fashioned sailing ship is more complicated to run than a modern nuclear-powered missile carrier. When the ship is changing sails around a square-rigger the crew seems to be all over the place!
That leads me to wonder what they're doing while the ship is just cruising along with the breeze.
