BTW, My Grandfather on mothers side was a sea captain and mariner his entire life. Can't recall him having one single tattoo. He ran tugs up and down the Hudson River, and would get ferried out to container ships sitting a few miles off of NYC and bring them in to port. When he was older he became captain of one of the Circle Line boats in NY that ferried people around and was also a sight seeing tour. He even let me have the controls when I was about 15 and said I was very bad at running large ships.!!!!! He was honest, if not a bastard. I think I still have all of the 2 dozen licenses he had for operating various sized ships. From tugs with barges up to the huge container ships from China to the double wall oil tankers from the middle east.

Not a single tattoo.
