What does “Eight Bells” mean? The practice of using bells stems from the days of sailing ships. Sailors could not afford to have their own time pieces and relied on the ship's bells to tell time. The ship's boy kept time by using a half- hour glass. Each time the sand ran out, he would turn the glass over and ring the appropriate number of bells. Completing watch with no incidents to report was "Eight bells and all is well."
