Seamen talk that floats only dung, and steamships walk on a sea.
Not vises seamen of steamship the “Admiral Nakhimov” is, as a rule, persons having before visa and losing her by virtue of different offenses and vital circumstances. On the Crimea-Caucasian line, besides a steamship the «Admiral Nakhimov», other passenger liners the crews of which were also floated, mainly, from losing the visa of seamen. Again I will specify are seamen talk that floats only dung, and steamships walk on a sea. I will repeat this suggestion in correct marine interpretation. On the Crimea-Caucasian line, besides a steamship the “Admiral Nakhimov” , other passenger liners the crews of which were also walked, mainly, from losing the visa of seamen. Not always the loss of visa took place because of violation by the seamen of operating draconian codes of conduct of soviet man abroad. These jesuitic norms in general now to nobody unclear and can cause only the laughter at modern people. But once they brought grief, shipwreck of hopes and end in relation to happy life of soviet seaman. I, for example, knew one seaman from a number the persons of the officers which lost a visa, to my mind, in general on the circumstances not depending from him. Exactly about this paradoxical case I will tell now. My hero is this middle ages a man, besides direct job, also discharged duties of ship chairman of trade-union committee. In the moment of this tragic event in life of my acquaintance next elections of communist leaders came in a Soviet country. On the vessels of merchant and navy fleet must be also, as well as in an entire country, ballot-boxes draped by red material. Hero of my narration, being the seaman of the ocean-going sailing, – in the moment of this trouble is loss of visa – there was in Piraeus (Greece). It should be said, that soviet merchant seamen could walk on foreign territory only in groups, by a quantity no less than three men. So this man was appointed by the commissar of ship senior group which was sent to go ashore with the purpose of purchase of red material on a vessel ballot-box. In a shop, he bargained with a salesman, carefully remeasured red material – in fact on the purchase were given out requiring report ships money. While my hero was busy at the purchase of matter, one man from his group eloped and asked Piraeus of political refuge in the police of port. Afterwards ship administration appealed to the Greek police with the false prosecutions in the address of defector is he, allegedly, stole a ship cashdesk and, as criminal, is subject to delivery. But Greeks, obviously, knew, what Soviet Union from within and did not give out a fellow. And character of my narration, as before talked, «closed» a visa. To the moment of death of steamship the “Admiral Nakhimov”, this seaman already more than 12 years worked on the Crimea-Caucasian line in a hope, that organs of KGB to him again, some time, will open a visa for the exemplary conduct. And where yet to him to go, having specific marine education, however to float along with the coasts of Soviet Union in a cabotage. Therefore between itself seamen named the Crimea-Caucasian line consonant, but diametrically by the name opposite by value is the Crimea -Kolymskaya line. Kolyma is the river, district in the Magadanskaya region on Far East of Soviet Union, where from times of Stalin there are the camps of prisoners leavings punishments. In fact for seamen Crimea-Caucasian line-there is in its way, also place of departure of punishment is sailing in a cabotage after oversea trips!
