good stuff - you had a great sky for a background, too. The
one with the lone person in it and the one just after are my faves... I
think.. but all interesting
Not being a sailor, I thought the "old gaffers"
were going to be the kind of two legged critters that get credited
at the end of a film - these guys :-)
clipped from Wiki...
"A gaffer in the motion picture industry and on a television crew is an
electrician, sometimes head of the electrical department, responsible
for the electrification (and sometimes the design) of the lighting plan
for a production's grips. The term Gaffer originally related to the
moving of overhead equipment to control lighting levels using a gaff.
The term has been used for the chief electrician in films since 1936
according to the Oxford English Dictionary.[1] However, a book on motion
picture production from 1929 refers to the chief electrician as the
gaffer.[2] The gaffer's assistant is the best boy.[3]
Sometimes the gaffer is credited as Chief Lighting Technician (CLT)."
Your gaffers are more picturesque :-)

A few of my picks from today. Shot a couple of hundred, selected a
couple of dozen for the press officer, and a few here for you....
