[COR - FB] Selling captured ship, Blind Jack

[SilentWolf]

Captain William Chase had taken command of the HMS Whisper at the end of March with the mission of protecting the merchants sailing under the Corrington flag. The HMS Whisper's first month at sea was rather uneventful. However, during its second month it ran across some pirates attempting to seize merchant vessels. The Blind Jack attacked the Dancing Dogfish but Captain Chase brought his warship to bear and forced the pirates surrender. With the prize in tow, he sadly discovered that one of the other merchant flotillas had not been as fortunate. He was able to rescue some of the survivors of the ships, HMS Otter, The Morning Rose, and the Nightingale. Captain Chase was almost taken captive when a Garvey Privateer seized the vessel unexpectedly. However, the merchant vessel Belson came to the aid and was able to save him from the disgrace of losing his vessel to privateers.

Back in port the Wolf's Equine, Trade, and Expedition Company, had to decide what to do with the newly captured Blind Jack. The loss of their long waited Golden Filly on her maiden journey had been a financial blow to the company. They decided to put the Blind Jack up for sale in order to raise funds for the various ventures presently underway.

Fortunately, a good buyer, Captain Genaro, was found and a price negotiated. Micah is waiting for his arrival with the negotiated payment.

Captain Genaro received a deed of ownership. He could then present it at the docks upon which he would be able to take command of the Blind Jack and deliver it wherever he desired.

First of all, the Montoya Estate thanks the captain of the HMS Whisper for saving the crew of the Otter. Thank you for bringing our boys home! I like the little interior scene too, and was wondering who had bought the license!
