Subject: RE: Tune Req: Tunes of the sea (NOT songs!)

For a realistic/historical view (rather than random "sea" association in the titles), this is a good resource:

Frank, Stuart M. 2000. _"Musick on the Brain": Frederick Howland Smith's Shipboard Tunes, 1854-1869._ Sharon, MA: The Kendall Whaling Museum.

http://www.whalingmuseum.org/sites/default/files/pdf/KWM%20Monorgaph%20Series%20No%2012_Musick%20on%20the%20Brain.pdf

Note: Tune #16 is incorrect.
