[Lt. johnson Reaper]

well, i originally went from ship to ship, upgrading until my bes tship as of yet, a regular frigate, almsot to a war sloop. It was terribly slow movement, including the galleon id had before the frigate, so i thought heck, ill try a light sloop

I've gotta say, light sloops are god if you want speed, i go island hopping at the speed of light. Quite a useful technique, even when i can't use ramming speed or full sail right away.
