In the autobiographical notes that Borrow supplied to Mr John Longe in 1862 there appears the following passage:

And as for y^e decks & uper workes they would calke them as well as they could, and though with y^e workeing of y^e ship they would not longe keepe stanch, yet ther would otherwise be no great danger, if they did not overpress her with sails.
