Rowboats are single-person vessels used during Kraken hunts. Rowboats have two components: the lifeboat from the parent vessel's hold, and the (optional) rowboat kit that's used to modify it.

Rowboats

Rowboat classes

The available rowboat classes are listed below.

Rowboat Class Max Moves Max Damage Shot Holds Treasure Holds Ink Rowboat Kit
Rowboat 3 Normal None Yes Yes None
Bumper Boat 3 Increased None Yes Yes Bumper kit
Chum Boat 3 Normal Chum Yes Yes Chum kit
Harpoon Boat 3 Normal Harpoon No Yes Harpoon kit
Powder Boat 3 Normal Powder keg No No Powder kit
Speed Boat 4 Decreased None Yes Yes Speed kit

The following table lists the number of times that each max damage classification can withstand before the rowboat sinks. These values assume that the only source of damage taken is that listed in their respective columns. Values of 0 indicate that the rowboat will sink after being struck once.

Max Damage Rock* Bumps Small Tentacle Medium Tentacle Large Tentacle Defendacle Harpoon Shot Powder Keg
Decreased 2 0 0 0 0 1 0
Normal 4 1 1 0 0 3 0
Increased 12 4 3 2 2 9 0

*Bumping the Kraken's head causes the same damage as a rock bump.


Rowboats can carry at most one unit of ink and one treasure chest/egg at a time. If a rowboat encounters a treasure chest or egg that is more valuable than the one it is currently carrying, the less valuable treasure will be thrown overboard in favor of the new one.

As indicated in the table above, some rowboats are restricted from carrying certain types of treasure at all. For example, the Harpoon boat can carry ink, but not treasure chests.

Rowboats do not take damage from colliding with other rowboats, but do take damage from rocks and tentacles.

Rowboat kits

All pirates entering the Kraken lair get access to the default rowboat vessel class. In order to use the other rowboat classes, a pirate must have that rowboat's corresponding rowboat kit in their inventory. Rowboat kits can be found under the "Rowboats" section of yer booty. A pirate's currently equipped rowboat kit determines which type of rowboat they will pilot on entry. During the Kraken encounter, a player can change the boat they wish to use from the "Next boat" menu at the bottom of the screen. This menu will be populated with all rowboat classes available to the pirate based on the kits they have in their booty.

Rowboat kits are produced by furnishers.

Special shots

Name Range Reload Time Description Shot Token Shot
Chum 1 2 Drops chum onto the board that will attract tentacles. Chum will last 10 turns, or until a tentacle reaches it and gobbles it up. A tentacle must move into or through chum to consume it; thus, shooting chum directly on a tile currently occupied by a tentacle will not cause it be consumed. Chum.png Chum east.png
Harpoon 3 1 Shooting a tentacle with a harpoon causes the tentacle to release ink onto the board. Harpoons also cause a small amount of damage and reload more quickly than other rowboat shot types. Harpoons can cause friendly damage to other players. Harpoon.png Harpoon east.png
Powder keg 1 2 Drops a powder keg onto the board. Powder kegs last indefinitely until activated. Tentacles or players running over a powder keg will activate it and then be blown up and sunk. Keg.png Keg south.png

Special shots can be fired normally by dragging their round shot token from the cache on the left of the battle nav controls to the slot of the move and side to be fired on.

Doubloons and decay

All rowboat kits require 2 doubloons to deliver on doubloon oceans, and will dust after 15 login days. Like badges, rowboat kits will show the exact amount of time left until dusting, rather than indicating "new", "good" or "old".
