good day - i have never served on the high seas in any capacity - but have done a few cruises and been around the block - so to speak - have been an avid ship lover for high on 56 years of my life - now approaching - 65 - i am somewhat amused by the term ships tiger ? what is it meant to mean and what are the functions of said person
many thanks |
Ships Tiger
The ships Tiger was the Captain's personal Stewart
|
Some real characters amongst them- Captain's Tigers. Usually excellent stewards.
|
I thought it was the name on the beer cans.
|
Yes, the Master's personal Steward. Always knew what time to wake him and what to take him for his breakfast, never cold, always just right!
A hark back to different times and customs. Rgds. Dave |
