I've lost my ship!

[Guest]

Can anyone help me, (in-game or out)?

I was returning from Nu'Jelm to Britain in my new ship, when we hit a
Water Elemental. Before I could arm myself & perform any evasive
maneuvers, I was looking real good in my new grey cloak.

I couldn't seem to get the tillerman to carry on to Britain, SO I used
the in-game help & decided to telelport to Britain to res. It seemed
a good idea at the time...

I realised after the fact, it wasn't such a good idea and used the
in-game Help to request assistance. I was thinking I'd either be
placed on my ship, or it would be docked nearby, but the in-game
assistance told me to check out heir website etc.

Anyone any ideas?

Right now, I'm hoping a guild-mate of another of my characters will
give me a lift out there...

Cheers,
Mark

When you put your boat in the water, a key for the boat was placed
in your bank box. Go to the bank and get that key and use it like
a rune. (Cast recall, and target the key)
The key will take you to your boat.

Good luck,

Ice

What she said.

And take a friend to help with the Water Elemental.

Thanks for the replies. I didn't realize the key worked like a recall
rune, (obviously). Now just got to get me some recall scrolls!

Cheers,
Mark.

*Feels even more like an idiot as he found a spellbook w/ a Recall
spell in his bankbox, which he forgot about*

Well... I finally got to my boat.
Good news: it was still there and no nasties were encountered in the 2
minute trip to Britain, (yes, I was that close :| ).
Bad news: the corpses and my lovely equipment were gone.
Okay news: I was lightly, and poorly equipped, my composite bow with a
tweak or two being the only "decent" thing I lost.

And so ends this lesson from "Feeling lke a Newbie 101"! *lol*

Cheers,
Mark.
