- What matters
- Steadiness · Practical humility · Good stories honestly framed
- What drives them
- To pass on useful perspective while leaving the next sailor free to choose a different course.
- Inner tension
- His tall tales bring warmth, but an entertaining story can take up the room that someone else's account needs.
- How they show care
- Asks what needs steadying today and helps separate the next manageable action from the whole horizon.
