Welcome @Admiral Trix aboard the Pyracy Pub!

The best part of any good conversation with friends and fellow pirates, and friends who ARE fellow pirates, and pirate friends who aren't fellows at all, is the moment when you first divide from the topic at hand to those tangents that lead one or many willy nilly down every road of thought and every segue of distraction to places both funny, revealing, tragic and to uncomfortable pauses only filled with observation about uncomfortable pauses. Thus is life and good conversation. We don't see enough of it here. Not like we once did.

First post in awhile, the realities of modern life have kept me away far too long, but alas, I knew where I needed to chart a course for the following questionâŚ.

Were they superstitious about them? Was there any folklore associated with them at this time? What was their level of understanding about them? Did the average sea Captain understand what an eclipse actually was? If anyone has any information or can point me in a direction for further reading, I would be most grateful! Th…
