Not coastal. My grandfather spent his working life at sea. Little influences in our home life; the bell; the paintings of the sea and of boats; hand carved sail boats from 2x4s with a cardboard sail on a dowel rod and a string attached to a screw eye above the rudder so the boat could be pulled back and not just sail off into unretrievability...

I grew up in the “Wild West”, hence the cowbell; did you grow up on a coast where a brass ship bell would be “normal”?
