: All I could find is what you probably already know -- it's a "traditional navy blessing."

Well, I found the Naval History Center online at http://www.history.navy.mil/ It has (under Traditions of the Naval Service) information about famous Naval quotes and traditions. But the U.S. Navy site said don't e-mail any questions because there's no staff to answer them. I did a search of "fair winds and following seas" and came up zero. The plot thickens.
