Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })This is a sailor who has endured storms, pirates, fog, and all the perils of the sea. He has been in a Bar Brawl in every port and he has never lost. Sometimes he is a Drill Sergeant Nasty to all the scurvy foc'sle swabs. He is a maritime Old Master. Sometimes he develops a Big Brother Instinct toward the Plucky Middie. But he is a lord of the sea and all sailors must heed him or endure his wrath. Often wears a Sea Dog Beard.
Can end up The Storyteller with all the tales he has to tell about his adventures and the wonders and dangers of the sea. If he actually serves in a Navy then he's likely to cross over with Old Soldier.
Compare and contrast Lord of the Ocean, who is often more aggressive and temperamental due to the association with more "active" water (ocean waves), and Water Is Womanly, usually more calm and graceful as associated with more "still" water.

RWBY: When a sea dragon Grimm attacks the ship Blake and Sun are travelling on, the crew are stunned, having never fought a Grimm that huge. The captain observes that no-one has ever fought such a large Grimm before, and then calmly, efficiently, takes full command of the situation. He instructs the crew on how to fight, he strategises the use of the ship-board side-guns and main cannon, as well as turning the entire ship into a battering ram. He also takes command of the Huntsmen on board, instructing Blake and Sun on what he needs them to do for his ship to become effective against the fast-moving, flight-capable monster. No-one questions his orders once he takes over, not even the anti-social Blake or mischief-making Sun, and it's his tactics that result in the defeat of the Grimm, rather than any plan the younger heroes come up with.

Captain Ahab is a classic example. Throughout the book he's referred to consistently as an "old man", but despite having a whalebone pegleg above the knee, he's portrayed as a skilled whale hunter to this day (and even called the best harpooner in Nantucket), the Pequod's owners have utter faith in his competence, and his crew genuinely admires him. He also charts whale migrations and manages to successfully locate a single whale that could be anywhere in the world's oceans, suggesting that his reputation as a captain is well earned.

Admiral Merlwyb Bloefhiswyn from Final Fantasy XIV fits the bill nicely, being a former pirate before she became a privateer and ultimately the leader of the Maelstrom. Her second-in-command, Eynzahr Slafyrsyn, was also the last one to wear the mask of the dread pirate Mistbeard.

Mass Effect:
Admiral Steven Hackett is this in space. His influence is so great, he still manages to fulfill this role despite only setting foot on the player's ship once in-game.
Same with Shepard's predecessor and former commanding officer, David Anderson, if this trope also applies to Space Marines.

Barnabas in Assassin's Creed: Odyssey. As the name implies, he's a rather jolly figure who helps Kassandra/Alexios captain his vessel, the Adrestia, due to their inexperience. He very much leans towards the fatherly side of this trope, and despite his lax attitude, Kassandra/Alexios come to call him the most honest man they know.

Too many examples to name in One Piece.
"Whitebeard" Edward Newgate and "Red-Haired" Shanks come to mind, though the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the rest of the Four Emperors, and several Marine Admirals could very well qualify.
Luffy's grandpa Garp, who is depicted as one of the oldest (Or at least, oldest-looking) Marine man in the series. Has a beard, too.
Then there is the mermaid king named Neptune who is a father as well.

Thomas Wake from The Lighthouse, though he's a lighthouse keeper and not a sailor anymore. He ticks so many of the boxes for this trope that Winslow eventually complains that he "talks like a goddamn parody". It may actually be an act however - he gives conflicting stories about what happened to his bad leg, and at one point Winslow accuses him of being a total fraud who was never a sailor, which Wake doesn't really confirm or deny. Then again Winslow might have been projecting a little, as he himself is lying about his true identity.

The title character of the Sherlock Holmes story The Adventure Of Black Peter. Peter Carey earned his nickname both from the way he captained his whaling ship and also for the way he violently abused his wife and daughter. No one who knows Black Peter is grieving when he ends up skewered on one of his own harpoons. His killer Patrick Cairns also counts, being one of Carey's crew from his whaling days and whose own skill with harpoons saves his life when Carey tries to cut his throat.

Also parodied with Uncle Albert in Only Fools and Horses. Every ship he sailed on sank.

Assassin's Creed:
Robert Faulkner in Assassin's Creed III.
Barnabas in Assassin's Creed: Odyssey. As the name implies, he's a rather jolly figure who helps Kassandra/Alexios captain his vessel, the Adrestia, due to their inexperience. He very much leans towards the fatherly side of this trope, and despite his lax attitude, Kassandra/Alexios come to call him the most honest man they know.

Mr. Krabs on Spongebob Squarepants has some characteristics of this, especially in the very early episodes. He's an old Navy deckhand and certainly carries the accent and slang around.
