Another ceremony that has become totally pussyfied. It started after Tailhook with the crackdown on all ceremonies/initiations and went downhill fast after that. The last time I crossed the line I would have rather just took the watch but I was King Neptune. Mixed gender crew = totally lame ceremony, but even the last all-male ceremony I went through was on the lame side, just not as lame.
Seven ships, crossed the line on every one of them.
I never served on a mixed crew.
At least you saw a fair bit of the watery part of the world.
