What is maritime culture?

Hi everyone, I wondered if transport specialists might be able to help me a bit. I stumbled upon Category:Maritime culture and was puzzled by what it was supposed to be about, especially because there is no main article maritime culture. There is one in German Wikipedia, de:Seemannskultur, which autotranslates as "seafaring culture". As that article puts it, Seafaring culture refers to the historically developed cultural characteristics established in seafaring . They arose primarily from the sailors' tendency to fill an environment experienced as unpredictable and limitless with myths and customs. This way, they could fill the vast, unknown, and frightening—as the "foreign element," the sea, was experienced—with familiarity, thus reducing the fear of it. What follows is a range of beliefs and practices of (mostly European) seafarers over the course of centuries, both real and imagined (e.g. belief in sea monsters, but also walking the plank was apparently barely if ever a maritime practice), symbols, (in)discipline, food, health and survival, safety measures, and so on. Is this also what you would understand as "maritime culture", or not really? Because it seems to me that the current Category:Maritime culture is much broader than that, a catch-all for anything maritime-related, which is probably not helpful for navigation (pun intended).
