It's not even the captains, it's the investment companies that own the boat.
Perhaps we need a maoist uprising against the boatlords.
We need to RETVRN to voyaging. Seafaring has been ruined by capitalist speculation, it was way better when some half mad alcoholic recruited you from a pub to go cross the Cape of Good Hope on the slim chance you'd end up back in Liverpool with a boatload of silk and tea.
recruited? is that what they call when you feal a crack on the back of your head and wake up on a ship miles out to sea
Well at least I'm no longer tied to my feudal obligations, and if I don't die I'll get enough money to spend like 2 years tavern-hopping in London!
