-You mean it does something other than holding my soda can?-

Bilge- Yeah, man! It can hold your bong, your ashtray, with a little duct tape
it makes a wicked lava lamp platform...like dude! There's a zillion uses for
the thing.

I've even heard, back in the "Golden Age", that some ship turned their
binnacle into the "no-****-'em" finest wet bar anyone had ever seen!

Well, that was only the starboard one...for the licensed officers, the
unlicensed had the port binnacle, which had been converted into a keg chiller &
tap. James Bond and "Q" were mere hobbyists compared to that crew.

Quartermasters were chosen mainly for their skills at dry martini assembly.

Some of the most vicious fistfights anyone could ever witness would be between
two AB's over which one had "First Wheel".
