Quick answer

  • If your ship takes too much damage, check Hull. If it survives but fights drag on, check Damage. Use Movement for slow getaways and Steer when wide turns cost you shots.
  • After claiming the LongCannon, equip it in a compatible slot under Port → Customization. Check the slot name before you leave.

At a port, open Upgrades and choose one problem to fix. Use your last manageable fight as the comparison.

Check the cost and result

The early sail-era hulls recorded in the community index are Boat (T1), Skiff (T2), Sloop (T3), Cutter (T4) and Schooner (T5). Compare the hull’s slots and on-screen requirements before moving up. Some later hulls list a rebirth requirement.

  1. Read the row’s cost and current level. If it asks for a resource you lack, check the Resources tab and the current buy price before spending.
  2. Upgrade one row you can afford. Check that its level changed. If you upgraded the hull, check its HP and slot labels too.
  3. Take another short fight near port. If the same problem persists, distinguish missing shots from low damage, or a slow turn from a slow retreat.

Fit the LongCannon

  • If the LongCannon is missing, check Supporter and the reward items before trying another slot.
  • If the weapon is in your inventory but the slot stays unchanged, check that the current hull has a compatible slot.
  • If you have the cannon equipped but shots fail to connect, bring the side carrying the cannon toward the target and look for a steady lock. Some cannon types need longer to fire.
  1. Claim the Supporter reward on the Roblox account you play on. The reward lists the LongCannon and 1,000 doubloons.
  2. At port, open Customization and select a compatible cannon slot. The starter Boat screenshot shows two Rear_Cannon slots. Use the slot labels on your own hull.
  3. Select LongCannon, then reopen the slot and confirm that the equipped name changed. Test it on a manageable target before taking a longer trip.
