Murphy looked over as at least one man seemed a bit confused. He used his cane to get on board and approached him. He reached over and showed him how to make sure a few lines were well secured before they started. "There isn't much before we start, relax."

"Do you want a reminder?" He'd only shown him a little before, but it was a lot to take in at once. "We will pull the anchor and partially lower sails to move to the spot to go. Then, when it is time, we fully release the sails. I will steer, and call out orders. Do you remember the parts of the boat?" The last thing he wanted was to try to tell his men to prepare for going right and they all go left.
