My early life was spent at sea on a commercial fishing boat. A crew of about 6 would alternate as cook. I had put a large turkey in the oven, and went back on deck to work. Sometimes the sea can get rough, not unusual, which can disturb items not locked or tied down. The rocking of the ship somehow unleashed the oven door latch allowing the turkey to fall out of the oven onto the galley deck and rolled around for hours whilst we’re on deck. Upon discovering this the turkey was covered with sand, and the galley deck was covered with turkey grease causing serious slippage in the rough seas. We tied a line onto the sandy bird and threw it over the side to drag in the sea and cleaned out the sand. Not all the sand but amazingly we ate it. I did get sand between my teeth.Life at sea and the sea owns you.
