Wow. The fender making (marlinespike seamanship) brought back some memories. 10 Internet's to any landlubber who can name the pair of instruments used by the boatswain's mate on the right.

That's right about when submarines started using diesel engines. Gasoline and kerosene engines were still in use on some boats.

The ammo onload They're not fused. Pretty safe, even if you drop one. All well and good, but seeing them drag the nose cone of the projo over the knife edge of the hatch gave me a physical reaction. So did rolling the powder cans along the deck (pier?) while clearing debris and shit out of the way. Old Gunner's Mate habits die hard
