I'm very tempted to join, on the grounds that I agree with your 
collective canonical interpretations.

But I will stay out to sea for the time being - as an intermittent 
Battleships player I understand the whole point of going to sea is 
not the company of your shipmates, its the war, the fighting, the 
blood running in the scuppers, the feel of your cutlass in your mouth 
as you swing aboard the enemy's vessel, the roar of cannon, the 
squawk of the parrots, the thump of the wooden leg (yes, it's that 
Moody ship again), the bad imitations of a Devonian accent, and the 
glug glug glug of rum drunk straight from the bottle.

Avast, ye landlubbers
