The interior of the typical Navalist’s house is adorned with brass speaking tubes, compass bowls and barometers. A tactical sea battle will be playing out on a navigational fathom chart in the corner, and a copy of the International Code of Signals will be open on the window sill, next to a leather-bound telescope, a bottle of Pussers Rum, a tin mug and a loudhailer.

  • The interior of the typical Navalist’s house is adorned with brass speaking tubes, compass bowls and barometers. A tactical sea battle will be playing out on a navigational fathom chart in the corner, and a copy of the International Code of Signals will be open on the window sill, next to a leather-bound telescope, a bottle of Pussers Rum, a tin mug and a loudhailer. However a good Navalist knows that his armada is nothing in port, and if the enemy arrive in the Western Approaches unchallenged, there’ll be the Devil to pay. The thought of a fighting flotilla in the heat of battle, with a Flag Officer at the head, Blighty astern and young powder monkeys executing gunnery drills below, is what the Navalist was born for.
