Go out to the Sea

1Port Official

You must talk to a port official or port guide to depart the city.
Remember to take your ship to the shipyard to fix damaged parts before going out to sea.

2Provisions

You can hand out supplies, recruit sailors, and exchange ships at the dock.
Make sure you purchase enough water and food for the sailors along with material and cannons to prepare for potential battle at sea. Users can also check the weather forecast at the dock. Blizzards and hurricanes inflict damage on the ship and sailors so be sure to depart after the bad weather clears.

3Recruiting Sailors

If the numbers of sailors have diminished recruit just enough to fill in. Sailing with an insufficient number of sailors can compromise traveling speed. More sailors may mean higher expenses, but more efficiency in battle.

4Departure

Once out at sea try raising the sail to move the ship forward. Ships with partially open sails move very slowly. Control the sail's direction to catch the wind, moving the ship much faster as a result. For more on sailing a ship look here.
