Ship and Sailing Guide

I'll offer this testimonial about the sloop...

I had a crew this morning, and they weren't exactly all focusing on the same ship. So, at one point, I had a Phantom ship, an East India Company Galleon (around level 20), and a Navy Frigate all moving to engage me.

Using the Sloop, with some speed skills, I managed to get out in front of them and let my canooneers blast away. We sank all three ships and took minimal damage. Unfortunately, that crew just wasn't interested in coordinating their efforts after that, and they just fired away at anything that was remotely close.

At that point, I dropped them off at Tortuga. However, surviving that chase was quite thrilling! Lucrative too.
