I found this on You tube - never heard of it before but it seems relevant at the moment. If it is old hat or complete rubbish, I apologise...

As Captain I shall be last to leave the ship.
If I run past you on the way off,
you assume the rank of Captain.

Yeah, there’s far too few captains are willing to lead from the front and show the way to others who will likely be cautious about getting into a liferaft,

I've seen a skipper jump off a perfectly good boat that wasn't even slightly sinking . . .
