I have been listening to a tape reading of "Two years before the Mast" and learning some of the ways of the old clipper ships and comparing the way some of the old traditions evolved into use by the modern Navy. If you are able read the book and take a step back in time to 1843 and go "Round the Horn" to early California before the gold rush forever changed it. Climb the rigging and unfurl the top gallants and sky sails and ride out the seas when the ships were wood and the men were iron. You will enjoy it !.
