Ahoy There

A youthful indiscretion resulted in young Jack Smith being sent away to sea. These are the stories of the adventures he had in the merchant navy. When tales were told up on the poop deck at the end of the day, "there were stories about drunken revels, falling in love and jumping ship, being jailed around the globe, of fires, mutiny, sabotage, sinkings, sackings and suicides, men running amok with fire axes, others leaping overboard at sea. There was always a story you hadn't heard before. Here are just a few." Warning - some 'salty' language.
