Det här var den vanliga arbetsplatsen för signalmatroser när fartyget var till sjöss. En tredjedel av tiden stod vi inne i styrhytten som rorgängare. Arbetsuppgifterna bestod i att vara utkik (med kikare), morsesignalering med lampa till andra svenska fartyg i flottan och kulspruteskytt (ksp58, framför allt mot fientligt flyg). På bilden kan även ses den på den tiden superhemliga lådan (under matrosens vänsterarm) med ett antal knappar utplacerade i olika bäringar. Denna var avsedd för att avfyra antirobotraketer. Om signalmatrosen såg en inkommande sjömålsrobot, skulle han trycka på en knapp motsvarande bäringen mot roboten, varvid en radar-avledande raket avfyrades, lämplig för den riktningen. Denna utrustning fick vi aldrig prova och jag vet inte varför.
This was the common working-place for us "signalling sailors" (signalmatros) when at sea (One-third of the time was spent as helmsman in the wheelhouse). We had the following tasks: Lookout (with binoculars), signalling with a lamp to other Swedish ships in the navy and machine-gunner (primarily against hostile aeroplanes.

Celebration
Today was the day we officially got our beach back. It has been closed off for just over 18 months while improvements were made to the sea wall and mile long (1.8km) promenade.
The official opening (the boring bit) took place at 1:30 when a plaque was uncovered. Then at 2pm, at the south end, the Army Reserves fired a big gun across the waters and the unofficial part of the celebration continued.
One rowing boat with 4 rowers and a helmsman set out to row the distance.
Two swimmers from the Wild Sea Swimmers group swam the distance.
Six runners from the Glenrothes Triathlon Club ran the distance along the beach.
Kirkcaldy and District Pipe Band led members of the public along the promenade itself. Maybe a couple of hundred hardy souls made the pilgrimage.
The weather was a typical cold, windy and cloudy December day.

1936 Twin Coach Helms Bakery Delivery Truck
$246,400 USD | Sold
From Sotheby's:
To Angelenos of a certain age, few vehicles are as instantly evocative as the Twin Coach Helms Bakery truck. Looking not unlike a plump bread loaf on wheels, these delivery vehicles—along with the special whistle sounded by the “Helmsman” at the wheel—announced the arrival of bread and sweets, fresh from the ovens at Helms’ sprawling, modern bakery facility in Culver City, California.
Helms Bakery products were never sold in stores, and founder Paul Helms, who established the company in 1931, wisely realized that distinctive delivery vehicles served as an effective form of advertising in their own right. To that end, he commissioned Twin Coach of Kent, Ohio to produce 148 of these flat-nosed vans. A stout Hercules four-cylinder provided ample power, while wooden cabinets in the back housed the delivery items.
As is so often the case, these commercial vehicles were used hard for years on end, and they were typically upgraded over their working lives before being disposed of and scrapped. This 1936 Helms Twin Coach is one of very few that have survived to the present. Wonderfully restored in the Helms livery of light yellow and blue, it retains its four-cylinder engine (many were converted to six-cylinder power over the years). Mock baked goods line the wooden shelves in the back, and the exterior is adorned with period-correct graphics.
Worthy of special note is the “First and Finest on the Moon” poster on the driver’s door, which recalls a remarkable moment in Helms history; its bread accompanied astronauts into space on the 1969 Apollo 11 mission. Unfortunately, this new Lunar delivery territory was not enough to overcome market pressures from modern supermarkets, and the company shuttered later that year.
Helms used a range of delivery vehicles over the years, but it is these iconic Twin Coach trucks that have endured in the public memory. Whether you grew up hearing stories of the fabled Helms Bakery fleet, or perhaps even recall the days when these trucks roamed the streets of Southern California, this rare Twin Coach would make for a unique and historically notable addition to your collection. Restored in its proper Helms livery, this rare survivor is sure to bring smiles—if not fresh-baked cookies and bread—to all who see it.

The "jekt" was extensively used for transport along the coast of Norway.
The helmsman's view is blocked by the sail, hence the need for a watchman at the bow.
before I had a chance to upload all my photos from the recent Japan trip, I was off again on another trip to Asia, this time to China, and Hunan province. These images were taken on Tangerine island in the middle of a river that bisects the provincial capital city of Changsha, not far from Mai Zedong's hometown, and where he spent some years in his youth, when he was young and handsome...
USS Santa Olivia, a World War I troopship. The Santa Olivia was built in 1918 as a cargo ship and was taken over by the Navy in July 1918. She made 6 round trips between the US and Europe before she was decommissioned in July 1919 and returned to civilian ownership. For more information on the Santa Oliva see the Naval Historical Center's webpage.
One other interesting fact I found is that according to Jeffery Meyers' s "Bogart: A Life in Hollywood," Humphrey Bogart served as helmsman on the Santa Olivia but went AWOL and missed the ship when it sailed for France on April 14, 1919. I'm not sure when he would have rejoined the ship so I don't know if he would be in any of the pictures.
Taken in Quartzsite, Arizona, during a photo outing one Saturday in January. I was accompanied by cobalt123 and my son Colin, known here on Flickr as infernosangel27. I found these ship's helms propped up against an RV and took a few pictures of them.
SOUTH CHINA SEA (July 23, 2013) -- Republic of Singapore Navy 2nd Lt. Benjamin Teo observes Seaman Zach Curato, left, perform the duties of the helmsman aboard the guided-missile destroyer USS Fitzgerald (DDG 62) during Cooperation Afloat Readiness and Training (CARAT) Singapore 2013. More than 700 Sailors and Marines are participating in CARAT Singapore. U.S. Navy units participating in CARAT Singapore include the Fitzgerald, the littoral combat ship USS Freedom (LCS 1), Military Sealift Command's Lewis and Clark-class dry cargo ship USNS Washington Chambers (T-AKE 11), embarked Destroyer Squadron (DESRON) 7 staff, and a U.S. Marine Corps platoon assigned to 3rd Law Enforcement Battalion. CARAT is a series of bilateral military exercises between the U.S. Navy and the armed forces of Bangladesh, Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Timor Leste.

Known to his shipmates aboard the Rusty Pelican as "Tiny", the helmsman of the ship is steady as the Rock of Gibraltar. Hugely muscled upper arms help him keep the ship on course during the most violent of storms. "Tiny" got his nickname not in the ironic sense that he is a big man called tiny, but because he is so proud of the sea serpent tattoo across his belly that he always wears shirts two sizes too small to show it off. Even when the ship ventures north of the equator in search of booty "Tiny" refuses to put on a warmer shirt.

"Sailing the Seas Depends on the Helmsman" (Chinese: 《大海航行靠舵手》; pinyin: Dàhǎi hángxíng kào duòshǒu) is the English-language title of a popular Chinese revolutionary song. The song was already quite popular in the 1950s but became a big hit during the Cultural Revolution (1966-1976).
《大海航行靠舵手》原名《干革命靠的是毛泽东思想》，创作于1964年春天，由李郁文作词，王双印作曲，在周恩来的指导下稍作曲子上的修改。该曲是一首歌颂毛泽东思想的歌曲，反映了当时中国‘红卫兵’学习毛泽东著作的热潮，也因此该曲在文革时期传唱度极高[1]。该曲歌词简短，曲调明快，琅琅上口。另外，该曲曾在第三世界相当风行（据统计，世界上曾有一百多个国家传唱[2]）。

The naked helmsman looks rather like a Playmobil figure, standing on his futuristic boat.
Up in the wheelhouse of a traditional Chinese junk in Bái Tử Long Bay, the helmsman and mate are happy to take their eyes off the ‘road’ and flash smiles for the camera.

1936 Twin Coach Helms Bakery Delivery Truck
$246,400 USD | Sold
From Sotheby's:
To Angelenos of a certain age, few vehicles are as instantly evocative as the Twin Coach Helms Bakery truck. Looking not unlike a plump bread loaf on wheels, these delivery vehicles—along with the special whistle sounded by the “Helmsman” at the wheel—announced the arrival of bread and sweets, fresh from the ovens at Helms’ sprawling, modern bakery facility in Culver City, California.
Helms Bakery products were never sold in stores, and founder Paul Helms, who established the company in 1931, wisely realized that distinctive delivery vehicles served as an effective form of advertising in their own right. To that end, he commissioned Twin Coach of Kent, Ohio to produce 148 of these flat-nosed vans. A stout Hercules four-cylinder provided ample power, while wooden cabinets in the back housed the delivery items.
As is so often the case, these commercial vehicles were used hard for years on end, and they were typically upgraded over their working lives before being disposed of and scrapped. This 1936 Helms Twin Coach is one of very few that have survived to the present. Wonderfully restored in the Helms livery of light yellow and blue, it retains its four-cylinder engine (many were converted to six-cylinder power over the years). Mock baked goods line the wooden shelves in the back, and the exterior is adorned with period-correct graphics.
Worthy of special note is the “First and Finest on the Moon” poster on the driver’s door, which recalls a remarkable moment in Helms history; its bread accompanied astronauts into space on the 1969 Apollo 11 mission. Unfortunately, this new Lunar delivery territory was not enough to overcome market pressures from modern supermarkets, and the company shuttered later that year.
Helms used a range of delivery vehicles over the years, but it is these iconic Twin Coach trucks that have endured in the public memory. Whether you grew up hearing stories of the fabled Helms Bakery fleet, or perhaps even recall the days when these trucks roamed the streets of Southern California, this rare Twin Coach would make for a unique and historically notable addition to your collection. Restored in its proper Helms livery, this rare survivor is sure to bring smiles—if not fresh-baked cookies and bread—to all who see it.

The sculptor was Leonard Craske and the dedication was August 23, 1925. The bronze monument consists of a nearly square base of sea green granite, carried from the famous "Blood Ledge" in the Bay View section of Gloucester. The stone is cut with a rough finish to typify the rugged character of the figure, with a single panel on the front holding the bronze letters of inscription, "They that go down to the sea in ships". 1623 - 1923.
The pose chosen is that of a helmsman bringing his craft up as close hauled to the wind as possible to clear some dangerous rocks, his eyes being fixed on the sails to detect the first indication that they are beginning to spill the wind, every muscle being strained to hold the wheel firmly until the peril is passed.
This is a memorial to all of the Gloucester fishermen who in years since Gloucester was settled in 1623 have lost their lives while fishing. It faces the outer harbor in Gloucester, Massachusetts.
