Points: 17
Masts: 3
Cargo: 4
Moves: S+S+S
Guns : 4L,4L,4L
Hit %: 100 (S), 100 (L)
Ability: Junk. This ship gets +1 to her cannon rolls for every friendly ship within S of her.

Usually, when you see a ship with high speed, bad cannons, and a sky-high point cost, she turns out to be one of those ships that give a bonus to every friendly ship within S. The Sea Wind is the other way around.

Seventeen points is a lot to pay for three masts. Her cannons can get as low as 1-rank if three friendly ships stay close by. But can you afford three more ships after paying this ship's cost? Also, with so many ships that close together, many of them won't be able to get a line of fire on the enemy. If battle is your goal, may I humbly recommend the Grand Path instead? She costs the same and has better cannons, and more of them.
The Sea Wind will do well on gold, but her point cost could buy two or three smaller ships that would do a better job on the wild islands.

In the OE release, this ship transferred itself to the USA as #147, a Special Edition ship, but otherwise identical. If they could have pulled her point cost down, she might be useful. But she's far too expensive for what you get; I can't recommend using her.
