Give me a little Ongar to build up the capital, and I'll happily offer insurance against your valuable asset.
As the wealthiest merchant in all the land (no one *else* owns their own ship, after all) I would be willing to consider purchasing insurance, after seeing the terms.
ACTACTACT: the CEO of Happy Crab LLC would like to join the crew of the Audacious Crustaceous on their next voyage, in order to gain a true perspective of the feats of sailsmanship and mercantilism that take place during these expeditions.
Safe travels, it would be a terrible loss to our proud profession if they happened to go overboard during the trip.
Sovereigns: 1.03s
Royal Favors: 2
Ships:
-2 shares in "Crazy Aywen" Sailing to Northland for persevered meat
-2 shares in "Lead Catfish" Sailing to NearEastland for sand
Sand: 0
Debts: 0
Hunters: 0
Sacred Animal(s): Snow White Dove(When placed on a ship, 25% increased chance of a safe, uneventful voyage. This is not trade route specific.)
Well now, I am willing to take bids on the use of my Snow White Dove. Obviously will have to wait to use it when a ship is in port...
Since it doesn't seem like anyone wants to rent your bird, why not just lend it to the Lead Catfish for its next voyage? Does nothing for you just sitting there, can at least save yourself money on avoidable repair costs. (Unless maybe someone who recently came into their own ship would like to protect the basket in which they have placed all their eggs?)
I wonder if we should increase the price of our charts. 10s on a single trip is a lot of money after all. How does the NRC stand on this proposal? (We can probably make it 1.5 just fine.)
Give me one of your shares and you'll find me much more open to moving the price up.
More seriously, make me a good enough offer this or next turn and I might just sell you my share. Then you can do whatever you like with the price.
