ADVENTURING SHIP

Once you have reached Lvl 21, fix up the Stone Pier and your Adventuring Ship will sail out for "Loot"

 (chests, nori, shrimp, octopus, mussels) 

Once you have repaired, you can start to load up your ship! Captain Andy will let you know what he wants/needs.

Fulfill orders and once ready, hit the green "EXPLORE" button to set sail!

Fill more orders for longer adventures and more haul!

Captain Andy will keep a ship's log throughout the adventure.

When your expedition time is over, you must RETURN your ship. (It will NOT return on its own!)

Capt. Andy will let you know on main screen that your ship is ready to RETURN.

Having a hard time filling orders? (I don't have that item!)

You do NOT have to send out a FULL ship. When you have filled what you can/want, hit the EXPLORE button. 

It won't be gone as long, but you also won't get as many items as a full expedition.

You can speed up the return trip with gems. (You can't speed up the adventure out.) First speed up is 9 gems and cuts time in @ half. 8 gems will cut @ in half again, etc. 

Wondering what loot is coming back? In bottom left under where it says "Loot:", tap and hold on an object to find out what it is.

Now your ship is docked after it's adventure, tap on it to unload it. Chest and packages will drop on the dockside.

These packages (circled in blue) do not need keys, they hold your nori, shrimp, etc gathered on the adventure.

Chests need keys to unlock.

 (See FAQ's about keys and chests!)

Ready to load up again! If you did not collect the previous loot when your next ship comes in, a message will pop up:

You can just set those chests/pkgs off the pier anywhere else, you don't HAVE to open them.

As you advance in Levels, the requirements for ship become harder/more.

FYI: When doing Regatta Task for the Adventuring Ship, 
it MUST be a FULLLY LOADED ship for the task to count.
