Dabtoes is a word sailors use to talk about other sailors. It’s like calling someone a ‘dumbass’ but with less swearing and more sea shanties.

My uncle works on a ship. He says all the sailors are dabtoes. I don’t know what that means, but I know it’s not nice.

The teacher said we were all dabtoes. I took that as a compliment, but I probably shouldn’t have.

My friend’s dad is a dabtoe. He works on a boat, and he’s always shouting at the sea.
