The Wheel: Help in the steering the vessel with Strength checks. Staying on course accelerates the vessel to top speed if the sails are completely unfurrelled and maneuvering slows the vessel but increases its AC by 5.
The Rigging: Climb into the rigging with an acrobatics or athletics check and help unfurl the sails. One success check unfurls the sails 1/3 increasing it's speed.
The Crow's Nest: A spy glass can be used to gleam information on enemy ships or the environment. Make a perception check to find information. You can also aid or man the sniper position to fire on the enemy.
Swivel Guns: Small cannons have been mounted on the fore and aft decks of the ship.
Naval Guns: Long cannons are mounted on either side of the ship.
Below Decks: Go below decks to hide from the combat or aid in repairs and bilging the ship. Use a Tinkers/Smiths/Carpenters Tools check to repair the hull if damaged. If the ship is taking on water you can help bilge the ship with an Athletics check.
