Stop in for a cup of coffee
Sand the deck!
When I was a young teenager I picked up one of Forrester's Hornblower novels. Don't remember which one I started with. Read pretty much all of them over the next few years. Pretty vivid detail, although some have argued that O'Brien and others surpassed them and I'm not going to argue that. Little did I know that there was a movie with a youngish Alec Guiness loosely based on one of those books.
It's really hard for Hollywood to recreate a major naval battle - I think the choices with master and Commander were good.
I'd run across a few people who had been on the recreated HMS Rose when it was under sail for some reenactment up in the R.I. area. Super cool.
