    Exactly John, but how do you work out how much? when it is running out of you as fast as you put it in, literally; on some jobs your boiler suit was dripping by the time you hit the plates at the start of the watch

    Remember going across the Indian Ocean on two pints of fresh water per man per day.

    Salt water showers and officers did not need to wear whites in the tropics, we were all in salt white clothes.
