Most arrive in a hurry, drops their anchor, and leave the next day, and we've been watching them come and go for days now. I suppose, they work hard, then they relax hard. They don't take anything in, they're consuming leisure.
@neauoire Which describes, more generally, how they 'do' seagoing, 'do' the sea. Without deep curiosity, commitment, or (heaven forbid) love.
