The dance represents boating on Puget Sound. They cast off from port, acknowledging other craft (Bars 1-8). The boats weave in and out on the sound (Bars 9-16). The propellers churn and the sailors acknowledge each other (Bars 17-24). The happy sailors dance and rejoice having completed an exciting and successful outing (Bars 25-32).
Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (8). A yellow background means a recording with one of the recommended tunes but a non-standard number of repetitions. Recordings with a red background use a different tune and possibly a non-standard number of repetitions.
