"Hillo you, what's the fare to the Breezy?"
"Three bob to you, cap'n."
"Take ye for 'arf," cried another.
"Jump in," said Kep.
The men jumped in and off they pulled. There was a rudder, and Kep took the tiller.
"Been at this game before, young sir?"
"I know what a boat is."
"Be ye a-goin' to join, sir?"
"Don't know yet. Going to see the first officer."
