GUEST,Phil d'Conch	Shanty or Chantey? (197* d)	RE: Shanty or Chantey?	01 Sep 17
What's in a name? Many years ago the task of going aloft on the smaller conchy sailing vessel went to the youngest sailor. They told us the ancient Roman navy term was funambulus, a "rope dancer." They told us the so-called circus "tight-rope walker" was properly a "funambulist." Way cool. Lost in translation...
