  There is a beautiful children's book about the John Ena and the family of the captain who commanded her. It's called "Sailing Home: A Story of a Childhood at Sea" If you haven't read it, you really should. The whole family, wife, three children, their governess and their pet monkey, kangaroo and pig were on board most of the time. It really is a magical story.
