[['''===Directions===''']]Assign one person to be the "Captain." The role of the Captain is call out the actions and dismiss the players who don't do the actions quick enough or who break from character. Once the captain calls an action, each player has 3-4 seconds to start performing the action. If they don't find a group fast enough or perform the right action, they are out of the game.

'''* Captain's Coming!:''' Everyone stands at "attention" (in a salute), and they can’t move from this position until the caller says, "At Ease!" If they laugh or break from the attention, they are dismissed. '''* To the ship!:''' Players run to the right.'''* To the shore!:''' Players run to the left.

'''* Man Overboard!:''' One person drops to one knee the other stands behind them, puts a hand on their shoulder. Both scan the ocean for the overboard man'''* Crows Nest!:''' Three players stand backs to each other and lock arms at the elbows to form the crows nest.'''* Mess Table!:''' Four players squat in a circle like sitting at table and pretend to eat like they haven't eaten in days. Tell them to make really loud eating sounds like "YUM YUM YUM YUM YUM!"'''* Walk the Plank!:''' Five people stand in a single file row hands on the shoulders of person in front of them'''* Mermaid!:''' each player individually thrust out right hip, places right hand on that hip, takes left hand and makes a big exaggerated wave and yells out "howdy sailor!" (this one is basically for your own entertainment as it looks hilarious and it gets the participants laughing)

===Alternatives===**Another version of this is called "[[Ships and Sailors"]].The rules are mostly the same except it often uses some different group names and such.:
