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 can’t move from this position until the caller says, "At Ease!" If they laugh or break from the attention, they are dismissed. * StarboardTo the ship!: Players run to the right.* PortTo the shore!: Players run to the left.(for an added bonus be sure to point the right direction the first few times and then begin to point the opposite occasionally. You will be surprised how many go the way you point instead of the right direction)* LighthouseMan Overboard!: Two players partner up. Put One person drops to one knee the other stands behind them, puts a hand on their arms up and hands against shoulder. Both scan the ocean for the overboard man* Crows Nest!: Three players stand backs to each other, and rotate lock arms at the elbows to form the crows nest.* Mess Table!: Four players squat in a circle making the noise “beep beep beep beep” (or whatever you think a light house would sound likesitting 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!)"* Man OverboardWalk the Plank!: Three Players group up. Two hold Five people stand in a single file row handson the shoulders of person in front of them* Mermaid!: each player individually thrust out right hip, forming 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 side participants laughing) ===Alternatives===Another version of this is called [[Ships and Sailors]]. The rules are mostly the shipsame except it often uses some different group names:* Captain's Coming!: the same as above.* Man Overboard: 2 players. One player leans “over the rail” (person gets down on one knee and the other two’s arms) puts a hand on their shoulder and pretends to look out search for the lost shipmatesomeone.* Life BoatBunk Beds: Four 2 players sit .
