I can count the number of great songs about sailing and/or life at sea on one hand (none of them are by Christopher Cross, Rod Stewart, David Crosby, or Styx). But this one is the finest of them all by far.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xZkBmScwmQ …

Fully agree on Sloop John... dont forget The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald though.

Disqualified - it’s a terrific song, but about neither sailing or seas
