<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>More on Shipholds. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Unlike a ship's hold where cargo is stowed, a
shiphold is a household based on a nautical theme/ It's usually
organized along the lines of a ship in that the head of the house hold is the
Captain followed by the first mate or officer (the difference between 1st mate
and 1st officer is the difference between a merchant ship and a Navy
Ship). The shiphold functions pretty much the same as a house
hold. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The only requirement for this shiphold is that we
must learn and sing Sea Chantys (mostly at the top of our lungs in an
inebriated fashion).</FONT></DIV>
