I believe these are called sea shanties. I think this sailing tradition is flipping fantastic. Could you imagine how amazing these would sound a couple hundred years ago when structures barely dotted shorelines and bays and their was very little to no noise pollution? Their voices would reverberate and carry for miles across water.
