No Bananas on Board Shirt | Sailor Lore
No Bananas on Board Shirt
For boaters, anglers, captains, and anyone who knows that some things just do not belong at sea, the No Bananas on Board Shirt brings one of boating’s best-known superstitions into the Sailor Lore collection. Equal parts warning sign, dockside joke, and old fishing belief, this design is built around the idea that bananas bring bad luck on a boat.
Design: No Bananas on Board
The back graphic features a weathered bunch of bananas tied with rope and stacked on a wooden cargo crate marked “Forbidden Cargo.” Waves, rope, hook, fishbone, and bad-luck details surround the scene, while the lower banner reads “Bad Luck Cargo.” The artwork keeps the superstition clear without turning it into a cartoon banana joke — vintage, nautical, clever, and wearable.
Collection:
Sailor Lore – old warnings, sea stories, dockside superstition, and maritime myth
Icon:
Forbidden banana cargo
Ideal for:
Boaters, anglers, captains, deckhands, fishing crews, marina regulars, and anyone who knows better than bringing bananas aboard
