Description

Excerpt from The Mirror of the Sea

A Departure is not What a vain people of landsmen may. Think. The term Land fall is more easily understood; you fall in with the land, and it is a matter of a quick eye and of a clear atmosphere. The De parture is not the ship''s going away from her port any more than the Landfall can be looked upon as the synonyme of arrival. But there is this difference in the Departure: that the term does not imply so much a sea event as a definite act entailing a process the precise observation of certain landmarks by means of the compass-card.
