oKay this question is very good. the poor sailors usally had no choise to be a sailor.At sea the got,terrible illnesses such as fevers,of course they ate mostly sea food.

Punisments are much worse tan school. They got whipped,punched,smacked and if they where really bad they got drowned or their limbs got cut of.

Why were sailors in the 1700s and 1800s likely to get scurvy?

Scurvy is caused by a lack of vitamin C. Sailors in the 1700 and 1800's went on long voyages where fruits and vegetables containing vitamin C were not available to them because these foods would rot. The diet of these sailors consisted mainly of cured meats and biscuits. Today this disease is nearly obsolete due to modern nutrition, but it was the number one killer of sailors from the 1500-1800's.
