Miscellaneous

Thank you for visiting THE Ship In a Bottle web site.

Here you will find a various assortment of items for practical or decorative purposes.

In all honesty, I am looking for a new supplier of bells as I have not been able to locate ANY high quality bells for a reasonable price. If you know of one, please let me know. Our bells, like most every other bell you will find on the internet are imported from the overseas market. My honesty may kill me in the bell sales department but that is the simple truth. However, the beautiful ropes supplied with these bells make them a bargain for sure. Our bells are just as good as theirs if nothing else.

Our bells are available in shiny brass or antique finish and engraving is available for an additional charge. These beautiful brass bells sound off with a fair tonal quality. Bells are 7" Wide, 11" High, 8" Deep when mounted.

We always discard the Bell Ropes received from our supplier as we feel our custom rope work adds that touch of distinction unique to our products. The cost is slightly higher but it is worth the difference! I must say I am quite proud of our rope work. You will be glad you chose us when you see the finished product!

Below you will find a small sample of the custom ropes we provide:

The Ship's Bell

In many of the navies and vessels throughout the world, the ship's bell is used to announce time in 30 minute intervals, sound the alarm during fire and emergencies, and is sounded in heavy fog as a warning to other vessels.

It is customary for each naval vessel to decorate their bell with an ornamental rope.
What is the Bosun's Pipe or Boatswain's Call? For starters, the Boatswain, or Bosun, is in charge of the deck crew. The Bosun's Pipe, sometimes referred to as a Boatswain's whistle, is infamously known for its shrill sound, which can be heard over the noise of high winds and heavy seas and is used for signaling the crew.
The 'Ship's' Bell and Bosun's Pipe are used to announce the arrival of distinguished or ranking visitors.
Who is Dennis Mauzy? A retired Master Chief Bosn's mate and very close friend of mine. We shared many trials and tribulations.
