The waters of the Caribbean can be a dangerous place - especially for those pirates who choose to sail alone. For those who want to up their odds of coming back, there are two ways to sail the seas - as a Captain of your own vessel with your own crew, or as a member of another Captain's crew.
If you're not ready to captain your own vessel yet, or if you don't want to gather a crew, you can sign on to someone else's ship. Just make sure that ship is going in the direction you want to go and that the Captain is strong and stout. After all, it's your hide that's on the line.
Becoming a Captain
Blimey, all you need is your own ship! But keep in mind that a Captain has responsibilities. Know how to handle your vessel. Make sure she's the right kind of ship for the job at hand. And it's a smart sailor who crews aboard other ships first in order to learn how to command pirates in battle.
Captaining Skills
There's nothing pirates love more than the feel of a ship beneath their feet. And when you command your own vessel at sea, you have access to special commands that allow you to enjoy and profit from the experience all the more. These commands allow you to control your crew and coordinate battles.
Quick Fact: Only the Captain can fire a ship's below-decks cannons. Crew members control a single deck cannon apiece.
