before the mast, literally, the position of men during the days of sail whose living quarters on board were in the
forecastle, but a term more generally used to describe seamen, as opposed to officers, in phrases such as ‘he sailed before the mast’. The phrase is enshrined in
Richard Dana's classic of
marine literature Two Years Before the Mast.
