Bringing the rudder (the part of the boat that is in the water and steers the boat) or the tiller (the stick that is attached to the top of the rudder so you can turn it) amidship means to bring it to the centerline of the boat so there is no turning - to steer straight.
it was originally built as a sailing ship, but at the last minute a steam plant was installed and paddle wheels attached mid ship... sooo asshgoles
Sailors began to sing sea shanties in the 19th century, particularly during the Age of Sail when commercial sailing vessels were prevalent. These work songs were used to coordinate labor on ships, helping to synchronize tasks such as hoisting sails and hauling lines. The tradition likely evolved from earlier folk music and labor songs, with shanties gaining popularity among sailors in the mid-1800s. They served not only as practical tools for work but also as a means of boosting morale during long voyages.
Ships in the 16th century were mainly Carvels and Carracks and the average length was around 20 to 30 metres (70 to 100 feet). There were a few bigger ships built, but they were not very stable, ie The Mary Rose. It was not until the introduction of the Galleon in the mid 16th century that ship size began to increase.
A galleon 'pole' is called a mast, just like on other ships. There are different names for a mast depending on its location on the ship and the number of masts. Main, mid, aft, mizzen, jigger. Not necessarily in that order.

MID
it would sink

Justinian compared organizing laws to sailors crossing mid-ocean to emphasize the difficulty and complexity of the task. Just as sailors must navigate uncharted waters and face uncertain conditions, organizing laws requires careful analysis, interpretation, and adaptation to suit changing circumstances. Both processes require skill, precision, and foresight to navigate successfully.

The clipper ships such as the Cutty Sark.
