Chapter 206
First thing in the morning, Jessop and the kids from the Orphanage come to show them their freshly renovated ship. They got all the work done last night and it's now had time to dry. They're especially proud of the nonslip paint on the deck, as it's the hardest bit to apply right, being a textured surface.
Heading out to the docks, Cain finds the Sail Maker and his crew hanging the new sails, two Gray and one Mint Green mainsails, with two mint green and one gray headsail, plus a small collection of gold-colored square topsails. Gaff-rigged, the sailmaker calls it, indicating the four-sided shape of the mainsails. In all, there are a lot of sails to this ship, many more than Cain expected, having thought that there would be a total of four, with one for each Mast and one in front.
