Sailing - Order of Repairs

No captain should ever order you to repair.  However, you may want to do so voluntarily.

If two or more pirates are repairing, you should try to do Hull Patching (the last activity) first.

 

 

 

 

In an emergency repair situation you want to avoid having one pirate working other pirates sit there doing nothing, waiting for the last pirate to finish.  Of course, this can't be completely avoided--someone has to be the last pirate working on the last activity.  You just don't want that last activity to be Hull Patching.  Get Hull Patching, Bilge Pumping and Plank Sawing out of the way first so when that last pirate darts in to do the last thing, that last thing takes five seconds or less.    Doing Hammering last is advisable.  Sometimes Hull Bracing is the fastest, but that depends on the type of puzzle you have to solve.
