Typical!! the Skipper looking for an excuse to swing the Lead!!!! If I am in the vicinity I will be delighted to help in any capacity I can. From Dossing around on deck (I am A* at this) to hurling abuse in strange nautical slang, you can count on me.

..Put A Man in the Chains to heave the lead
the Old Man shouts to wake the Dead
Come and get your oats my son
Whip Jamboree, Whip Jamboree,
with your long tailed...etc.
