Default Friday the 13th. Boating superstitions?

Anybody willing to admit to observing any particular superstitions
when boating? You hear all sort of things, from
"no bananas allowed aboard", to no whistling allowed, etc.



Yup. The banana thing.

One isn't a superstition though, at least years ago. If you have any doubt,
you never "whistled" while you worked aboard a US Navy destroyer back in the
60's or 70's.
