Further he asks permission to step into the lounge and ask if there is a ships cook in there. If she say yes, Michael will step into the hall and say " Gentlmen, I have just posted a notice of employment  which i wish you would consider. However i find myself in immediate need of a cook so if there is one avaialbe at this time, I am offering a chance tonight to show your skills for a fee of 5 gp regardless of whether you apply tomorrow for the position. I would also ask that you spread the word that I am in the market for 5 or so Marines to serve as ship security, which i failed to post and I am also offering a one night job along the same lines as the cook for say three to four Marines to guard the ship this evening for 1gp each So please, once again spread the offer." Hopefully, there is a cook who will accept the position. If there is Michael will send him off with Guiessppee and 25 gp to find provisions for tonights dinner. MIchael will then make his way trhu the market as stated making a mental list of the shops he needs to call upon tomorrow and in the next few days to get all the tasks done. As to the space requirments, I dont think we will need 2 cooks or a steward as I can pay the cook extra to assume that responsibilty, Also we may not need as many officers or passengers so that should free up about 6 slots....Regardless, Michael will just have to see what he has to work with when the people apply. Actually, he likes the idea of a crew of locals.......but we shall see. Given Michaels intention of using  a zig zag pattern up to Icewatch, hopefully he can make the legs no greater than 10 days bewteen ports given the ships potiential speed. Emphasis and bulk will have to be placed upon dry rations like trail rations, smoked meats, and porridge, cheese etc as all other will just have to be refreshed at ports. This will also allow a greater degree of safety etc should they be delayed and as always dried goods take up way less space thatn normal ones.   Assuming we can advance time, Michael will meet with the magristrate and tell his story and also ask the Magristate if he can take sworn statments as to the disapperace of the other ships by sharkmen ( Michael has the names remember) and if it would not be an inconvience, if he could also make a sworn statment as well as the port official as to the Dead Shark man on board etc....(he will politely hint that he would be more than willing to pay their current rate for such legal services if they would just inform him of it). That evening at dinner, MIchael will charm the port offical ( may i have his name) and mentino the fact that he is always on the look out for good deals on cargos and will most likley need to have a facotr here in Tereger to keep an eye out for him. He will aslo make polite conversation as to the locals etc......and try to get a sense of the man...  OCC: LOVE the ship, she sounds like a beauty and once i get her all gussed up, a tempting target for the unsuspection pirate <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />..this lady will have both grace and teeth <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
