'sung by' ofcourse, interesting typo after going Dutch for a bit.

They say the Irish are masters of begrudgery but the Calvinist Dutch mind shines through here in an such unpleasant manner, the begrudging of sailing a ship for pleasure, the begrudging of a rich yacht owner, and worse of all a rich German (the derogatory use of 'mof' adds to the miserable tone of the sentiment). And then the two men of the lifeboat, who would have been fine dying while trying to save a fisherman at work but not for someone out at sea for pleasure. A culture's mindset shinning through.
