Filling the ocean…Salting the sea to taste…Fashioning a peg leg…Reticulating the rigging…Teaching the parrot new words…Counting the cannonballs twice…Burying treasure, then forgetting where…Sewing false colors…Forging perfectly genuine papers…Bribing the harbourmaster…Waking the lookout…Asking the wind nicely…Hiding the rum from the quartermaster…Swabbing the deck (again)…Herding the ship's cat…Scraping barnacles off the horizon…Inflating the waves…Drawing sea monsters on the blank parts of the chart…Untangling the anchor…Negotiating with the seagulls…Polishing the spyglass with a dirty sleeve…Rehearsing the surrender speech, just in case…Pointing the compass north…Convincing the crew this is not mutiny weather…
