My only complaint is that they didn't show what happened to the Irish coxswain and his bride to be, or the tattooed PO and his "I Love Arabella" tattoo!

The longboat's coxswain took the tiller; his four companions leaned into their oars; the moorings were cast off and we pulled clear.

Six rowers sat on the thwarts, and the coxswain took the tiller.

The sailors went back to their sculling, and the coxswain steered the longboat toward the floating barrel.

The coxswain pronounced a few words in his bizarre language, and no doubt he alerted his men to keep on their guard.

But thanks to our skillful coxswain, we were fouled on the bias rather than broadside, so we didn't capsize.
