Seafaring skills refer to the skills required to navigate a vehicle through the waters of a water body. The narrator had honed the seafaring skills of his family for the past 6 years by devoting their leisure time to practicing on British waters. He had built a boat, the Wavewalker, a professionally constructed navigator, which had been fitted out and tested in the roughest weather one could find for months in order to prepare it for the task ahead.

Answer:
Honing our seafaring skills: this refers to the efforts made by the author and his wife, to perfect or sharpen their seafaring skills. Ominous silence: the silence here refers to an impending danger. Mayday calls: Mayday calls are radio-telephonic words which signal aircrafts or ships stuck in a disastrous situation.
