SAILORS SUPERSTITION OF WHISTLING FOR A WIND
Does the wind have ears? Ships like
Constitution
were powered by the wind. If
there was no wind, the ship did not make progress. If youre a sailor whistling for a
wind, the noise carries out across the ocean. Sailors would whistle trying to attract
the wind to the Ship. The expression whistling for a wind has come to mean to
attempt a futile endeavor.
