OK, cannons. It may surprise you to learn that muzzleloading cannons are legal to own so long as they don't use exploding shells and the shot, powder, and primer are all separately loaded. The Queen Anne's Revenge sported up to 40 cannon plus numerous swivel guns and small arms.
Costs for food, drink, and other essentials can be estimated by a standard business contractor per diem charge of $75 per person per day, or about $8.2 million. Total crew costs: about $19.5 million per year. here
The three 70m (230ft) tall DynaRig carbon masts were designed by Dykstra Naval Architects and support 2,900 square meters of sail. Amazingly, full sail can be set or furled at the touch of a button in just seven minutes. more
Yes it is, considerably, but it’s not actually a sailing boat. ‘Sailing Yacht A’ is actually a sail assisted motor yacht. The sails help power it.
17.5 knots under power, faster under sail. 30 knots is possible in the right conditions. here
Her accommodations include a master suite, two VIP suites, two double guest cabins and a full beam beach club, that converts into a cinema. There’s an all glass lift to take you between decks too, Willy Wonka would be proud. [links]
The sailing catamaran Hemisphere is one of Pendennis Shipyard’s most unique and imposing launches in our 25 year history. As the largest privately owned vessel of her type in the world she turns heads due to her sheer scale, but equally impressive is the level of luxurious detail within her interior spaces and range of on-board facilities. Pendennis partnered with leading multihull naval architects Van Peteghem Lauriot Prévost (VPLP) – designers of the 33rd America’s Cup winning multihull. Their innovative design formed the large cross-deck into their trademark ‘ailes de mouette’ which not only dispersed the up-draft wave motion, but also housed the large tender. [links]
Michael Leach Design’s relaxed, elegant interior is the epitome of contemporary chic and the yacht’s exceptional volume offers a high degree of luxury without a trace of glitz resulting in a beautiful yet practical family orientated yacht. Accommodation is provided for 12 guests arranged in 5 comfortable en-suite cabins. Watersports facilities on board are more akin to a private waterfront hotel than to a 44m yacht. The starboard lazarette holds the usual superyacht ‘toys’: windsurfers, wakeboards, Seabobs, waterskis etc and the crew tender, and the port hull contains a dive centre with a full range of equipment capable of both Air and NITROX tank fills.
Since her launch Hemisphere has been supported by our refit team at Pendennis Palma and from our base in the Pacific, with yacht support available to her whilst she was cruising Tahiti. [links]
You will need the following materials:
The Cog ship is a newer “fishing boat” and can be crafted at the shipyard in Port Epheria (Shipyard 3-5, 2F). You are also rewarded with a free Cog ship when you complete the main sailing quest. The ship has the Breezy Sail skill by default but CANNOT be repaired as well as having low HP. The ship does not have any cabins and therefore cannot hold any crew members.
If you are unable to restore the ship rations you can use Emergancy Rations. This is done using consumable foods. The higher grade the food is, the more rations it will give your ship. Whilst on your ship, press P to open the Ship info window and then click the + (plus) symbol next to rations. You can now select a food to use and the quantity you would like to use (similar to feeding workers).
