Awaiting the Weather in Stavanger

The DM: It is May 22nd, and at 6 a.m., prevailing cool temperature, with a light rain falling (about ⅓ in. per hour), and a light breeze blowing out of the south. The moon is still new when the sun rises. Wisely waiting for the weather to change a bit, the rain falls away by 7 a.m. leaving an overcast sky; the wind falls away as well, so that there is naught blowing but a "light air."

You would be reaching if you sailed with it, but it would take 12 hours to reach Jorpeland. Note in the picture the reflection of the dock on the water. Would you like to start off or wait to see if the weather changes again? This is Engelhart's decision alone.

Travel Preparations (continued, 3rd page)

Engelhart: as soon as I get my henchman sorted and do a bit of shopping I'd say we're good to go. The weather isn't going to get much better than this. I would, however, feel more confident if I had more people aboard with the meanest of sailing ability to act as supporting crew. My henchman is sure to get it, on my option, Pandred already took swimming instead, this still leaves Vafrandir as able to lend a hand if he so wishes.

Vafrandir: I will put my 2 Athletics points into Sailing. I guess I can tell a boom from a mast and which direction is up!

Thrax

The DM: You'll find Thrax's background as an image on the last post and I've sent a copy of that image to your email, Engelhart.

Engelhart's Boat

Vafrandir: I'm happy to take over the management of the cargo page. If so, I can create a Google Sheet to make maintenance easier.
