My dad was a shipmate on the Roi. He told me of this initiation: I believe the initiates became 'sons of Neptune'. Part of the ceremony involved crawling through something containing ship's garbage. I had always remembered from my childhood that this ceremony was to mark the first crossing of the Date Line, not the Equator.
