Revenge is sweat and after a long day sailing we have boarded and sunk them all. Now we will head back to Bermuda for repairs and to replace the guns that was destroyed onboard my ship. Also we need some more crew as we lost over 100 men in those battles. Finally we need to sell the 8Ibs cannons, then see how we stand for a trading license.

Now that we have the 315,000 pieces of eight required for a 90 day trading we are ready to look for cheap goods. We could try for a letter of marque but that would mean we belong to that nation and i am under no kind, queen or priests rule, i am a free man and will live my life that way. So its off to find what the English towns have to offer us, i also need to get a English flag as i don't have one lol.

We made it to Nevis only to find a 80 gun Lineship docked their. Luckily they can't attack us. But we are sure they would have been looking for us if we sailed by under the pirate flag.

We found a pirate fleet attacking a French squadren so i figured why not join in. All i want to do is have a little fun, i am in need of some boarding action its been a while since i lost had a good fight. So who will be first, the French have 2 Light Frigates, 1 Salamander, 1 Battle Frigate and a Packet Brig. The pirates have the Greyhound and 1 Sloop Of War.

Ok that answers my question then, the Salamander it is. I see both Light Frigates are looking interested in me as well. Should be a fun battle, one which the Greyhound is not to happy about fighting as she tries to sail away.

Looks like France are a little angry with me, well i did sink 2 Light Frigates and the Salamander. In my defence i will say this, they shouldn't have attacked me, not that i wouldn't have attacked them anyway. Just like i am going to attack these so called bounty hunter's. I hope they have their own body bags because i ran out a few day's ago.

I did warn them, now off to the store to sell the wheat i gained from one of the Light Frigates and load up on Sandalwood to sell to the smugglers at Nevis.

Well that request is now complete, just need to go to Port Royal and collect my reward. I am so glad i haven't annoyed any women, although saying that. If the hunters was to come in ships like the Heavy Galleon i would concider it worth the risk.

Oh well another request, i don't mind because i will be looking to get another trade license when this one runs out. In less the English decide to put a bounty on my head that is, i can't see that happening though. Its not like i am doing anything wrong, just selling some goods in towns that has listed them as contraband thats all.

A nice profit makker, it cost me 39 coin per unit and i am going to get 230 coin back. Port Of Spain have much more available as well, and now that i have a Heavy Galleon in my fleet i can carry much more. I think i have about 45 day's to go before the trade license runs out so if i am to make the 315k needed to buy another one i better get started.
