Methods & Techniques whilst sailing

Sailcloth catch system: Divert rain water off the sails into empty barrels for fresh water. Used during light drizzles and light storms. Never in full storms.

Fishing: Lower woven fishing nets against the current of the ocean at one side of the boat to catch more fish. Spare rods during settled ship times.

Can aragion join you?
If things lead that way in rp, yis. I'm not doing sign ups yet, but having some idea of how many people want to join in helps us in the prep (And citizens do get priority)

+Legacy has been prepped for 25 people. Going to have citizens sign up to see if we can have more on there or if we need to start filling other boats.

Alright- So I don't officially know how many citizens are going and as non-citizen players are roleplaying to sign up for ship, I'm adding a queue in for them. Citizens get priority when they can respond they're coming with a character, and if we have enough spaces, the queue gets boosted up. If one ship is full, we're bringing more ships.

Small animals are fine with risk of being subjected as emergency food ;-; Not sure about horses. I must consult the more experienced on that and will get back to you.

I was only asking because someone gave Azariah a horse to watch over. XD She's already said if the horse doesn't make it that's not 'fine', as long as the doggo makes it.

EDIT:

I have someone else who would be going. Cause he's another one of Az's adoptees and wouldn't leave him behind. Rang3r0wns94 (Jhaeros Maendir)

Added-
And for the horse, the big-boat can maybe carry one horse, but if we plan to bring more, we'll have to have a separate ship that needs to be manned. Generally risky to bring a horse on a boat majorly of people and supplies, but we can accommodate. (Thanks for link above- though I did skim it)

This probably means i should get a ship for each character right?
If that's what you feel should be done, but this thread doesn't mean that. Just means we're open to people applying to sail east in search of Un-plagued lands and maybe some hope in protection from undead. If you want to separate your characters to different boats, feel free. If you want to keep them in one, feel free~

Spelt my name wrong. ;)
By a letterrrr- but fixed

The expected date for voyage?
18th if they're going with anhald
That was expected, but I can't do weekdays and I would like to not rush/gather enough people to man the ship (And oocly confirm- as I'm trying to fill out as many spots as possible). I'm aiming for a few days after Anhald leaves. (Could possibly ease burdens for people WEing the ships and managing so many people).

Date we're aiming for: Friday, July 22, 2016.. 3pm/4pm pst? If not prepared enough time for the 18th of Monday. Same week, really- and Weekends give people time for roleplay on the ship

delaying it definitely delays the burden tbh sounds like a good idea to me
