Port Side Pirates (Singalong)

Product Information

Why not just define it the simplest way and the way the terms are actually used (port/left and starboard/right), by looking from stern to bow, or along the current heading (where the ships head/bow) is pointing. Although the terms port and starboard started off on-board English ships several centuries ago, they have found their way into every mariner’s life. In nautical terms, the bow or fore lies at the forward of the ship, while the stern or aft is the rear portion.

I sing these lyrics with that pacing and some embellishments of my own, rather than the version on the CD which comes with this book. The usage of these terms became common as English trading ships sailed to several countries during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries AD. In the early days of boating, boats were steered with the aid of a steering oar at the stern, and the majority of sailors were right-handed.The author and Marine Insight do not claim it to be accurate nor accept any responsibility for the same.
