The Salty Dog

The Salty Dog - Lugger - Captain Finn "The Dog" O'Connell
  The Salty Dog is a sturdy lugger with a sleek design that allows it to navigate through narrow channels and shallow waters. Its dark wooden hull is reinforced with iron plates, and its sails are made of sturdy canvas that can withstand harsh weather conditions. The ship has a small but efficient crew, with ample space for cargo storage and comfortable living quarters for the crew.
  The Salty Dog's nickname is "The Howling Hound", which references both the ship's canine-inspired name and the fierce determination of its captain and crew.

Sensors

"Animal Companions"   Captain Finn "The Dog" O'Connell has a unique method for securing his ship and crew during raids or battles at sea. He has trained a pack of sea lions and wolves to act as protectors and sentinels, both on the ship and in the water. These animals have become an integral part of the Salty Dog's crew, and they work in tandem with the human crew to defend the ship and its cargo.   Through careful training and bonding with the animals, Captain O'Connell has developed a special ability to communicate and coordinate with his pack. This allows him to give orders to the animals during battles, directing them to specific targets or locations.   Using sea lions as swimmers and wolves as land-based protectors, the Salty Dog is a formidable opponent that strikes fear in the hearts of rival pirates. The crew and their animal companions work together seamlessly, creating a unique and deadly force on the high seas.

Additional & auxiliary systems

The Salty Dog is equipped with a magical device that allows it to navigate through fog and stormy weather with ease. Additionally, it has a small library of maps and navigational tools that help the crew navigate treacherous waters and avoid dangerous obstacles.
