The Pegboard by D Hackett

Watches at sea lasted four hours and the time was kept with an hour glass (or, half-hour glass, actually). The youngest man on every watch kept his eye on the glass. When the sand ran out he turned it and called out the half-hour.

Many of the seamen had no education and could not read or write. They used a pegboard system to record what happened during their watch, including the direction of the wind, their compass course and their estimated speed. The ship's pilot would check this board to see the progress of the voyage and to make calculations for the next part of the journey.
