Drinking & Dragons

Wild:Ship

From Drinking and Dragons


The Seawolf's Folly aka Red Tide

The ship is owned in equal shares by Brilla, Nathaniel, Fuelwen, Rake, Ethyl.

It's relatively shallow draft and needs a crew of only 20 to sail optimally. Ten can get it going. With cargo, it tops off at about about 50. It can carry a total of 60 tons. Compare to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xebec (page 24, "Broadsides Naval Adventures"). To buy a brand new one of these ships would be about 25,000 GP. Does not have oars.
