sciencegeek	I give up. What's a HOGEYE? (197* d)	RE: I give up. What's a HOGEYE?	18 May 25
Since Whall was a British seaman born in 1847, going to sea from 1860 to 1874 sailing onboard East Indiamen, he admits to not have direct knowledge of what hogeye meant. His book published in 1910 was many decades later and was what he recollected from his youth and he most likely just heard offhand remarks that he took at face value. His book is archived here https://archive.org/details/shipsseasongssha00whal/page/118/mode/2up?view=theater
