🚢 CALL OUT: Alaskans, We Need Your Vote! 🌊👀

We’ve got a nautical mystery on our hands, and it’s time to separate the salty sea tales from the stone-cold facts...

🎩💁‍♂️ Word is: The captain’s cabin is always on the starboard side.
But is that real-deal maritime design… or just old shipyard gossip?

Our post of the week has sparked a spirited debate on deck—and now we’re roping you in. So, sound off, sailors and superfans!

Is it:
✅ “A time-honored truth and here’s why…”
❌ “MYTH, I’ve got a better explanation…”
🦑 “just a salty old myth that smells fishy?”
🤷‍♀️ “Wait, what’s starboard again?”

What other stories have you heard growing up in Alaska?

Whether you are crew, passengers, or just cruising in your own vessel, we want your two sea-cents. Dive into the post, check out the pic/link, and join the chatter in the comments. A’HOY!
