    Because sailors never got drunk enough to see that version.

    Edit: Let me revise that to say “Because sailors never got drunk enough to admit seeing that version when they got drunk enough to see it.”

        just enough rum

        This does not exist.

        There is only “just one more rum,” followed by “that was too much rum.”
