UK SIZES:8-1010-1212-1414-1616-1818-20 A story of 'Dead Bod', taken from:Shipsnostalgia website.I sailed as deck hand on the 'Tradesman' when Pongo was the skipper back in the 70's, he told Gordon Gay jnr and myself the 'yarn' of dead bod, if you knew Pongo then you will understand that some of it would have been tongue in cheek and taken with a punch of salt, very funny nonetheless.He told us that it referred to an incident/occaision with Capt Hopper when Pongo was 2nd mate on the Englishman whilst at anchor in Falmouth bay. An unfortunate seagull with a broken wing had landed in the well deck of the Englishman, and with 'Tulip' being an avid hornithologist took pity on the bird and captured it and placed it on a bed of rags in a cardboard box in the corner of his cabin.He then ordered the lifeboat to be sent ashore and that Pongo had to return with 2 ice lollies, after being ashore for a couple of hours and pints no doubt Pongo duly returned with the ice lollies that were melting rapidly in the summer heat. When he handed the lollies to 'Tulip' he quickly shook the ice off the sticks and returned to his cabin and used them as splints for the 'bods' wing.3 weeks later 'Tulip' appeared on the well deck with the cardboard box and rags with said 'molly' sitting as if it was on a nest and left it there to take to the wing once again. While waiting for the bod to take off the bosun 'Bob Skelton' a short rotund chap wearing clumpers, smock and flat cap appeared from the fo'csle, when he saw the 'bod' on the deck he said "what the f****ng 'ell is that?" and took an almighty swing with his clumper and splattered the 'bod' all over the the foreside of the bridge.Tulip was beside himself and was ranting at Pongo, 3 weeks of sh*te and feathers and sleepless nights I've endured and what have I got............Pongo duly replied with......a 'dead bod' cap.I'll leave it to you to sort out what is tongue in cheek and how much salt to take, but that was the story told.As of now with the Siemens contract to take over most of Alex dock and the jetty, myself and a few other pilots have taken this to management that the name 'dead bod' should stay, and we have it from the Harbour Master that this will be the case and will presnt it to Siemens at the appropiate time.....'Siemens Dead Bod Berth' sounds good enough to me.Regards, Tom Jessop.
