English: Ship 'Harmony' of Hull, pictured with her May Day garland hoisted halfway up the main-topgallant stay. These garlands were made of ribbons and usually had a model of the ship in the centre. -- in this picture it's above -- They were never removed until the whaler arrived home. The May Day celebration consisted of an initiation of first-time sailors similar to that inflicted in the crossing of the Equator ceremony. |
