Sailors had many superstitions re tattoo's.
A Cross on the soles of your feet would ward off sharks if you had to swim for it. Hinges in the elbows would give extra strength climbing the rigging. Swallows could always find their way home. Anchors on the ankles to anchor you...
Not sure they helped in the physical but psychologically speaking they probably helped out between ports
