My symbol
The symbol that I have chosen is my Great, Great Granddads symbol. He was a cargo shipper that shipped many goods to many places.
He sailed one ship, that ship was like his treasured house. He named his ship: Master Velocidade.
The symbol is located on the right of the ship, there are three sails on the ships: The Foremast, The Mainmast and the Mizzenmast. The symbol is between the bow (which is the front bowsprit) and the stern (which is at the back of the ship) is is also located under the Mainmast (in the middle).
The symbol represents cargo shippers, every ship that sailed goods to places back in the mid 1800 were called the king of the waters.
The symbol has the shape of a ship with water splashing up in the air, there is a crown overhead, that represents the "King", of King of the seas.
He sailed supplies, materials, equipment for the government in other countries and more. that was not all they did! They were often called over to Germany, France, England, Canada and even places like Greenland! Without these trusty, "King of the sea" ships most people wouldn't have survived or lived.
I chose this symbol for myself and my personal history because it has been treasured going from family to family, to now. It is most likely to travel further down the route. We keep it all stored in this precious cupboard that has the picture of my Great, Great Granddad in the army, a photo of the symbol, a photo of his ship, a mini replica of his ship and finally an quote written by him: A ship in harbor is safe, but that's not why ships are built. This means that having a ship and keeping it / it safe is great but that's not what they are for, they are meant to be used to have a long, great, happy, live-full life and used well.
