Treasure Hunters Guild/Old Salts Tale

= Old Salt's Tale (Found!)=

Posting
Ahoy, hunters! Word has been heard at a nearby tavern, that a mighty beast lurks across the seas. The poor old drunkard was so frightened, he refused to speak further about the subject after spouting off about the tale of some monstrous sea-beast. The Guild is suspicious about the claims, and requires you hunters to either validate the rumor or disprove it... Thirsty Noah says, "I swear it...though it was pitch black that night...I'm 100% certain that I may have almost seen the creature...I think...it had six mighty arms that wailed on our tiny ship a dozen times--no--TWO dozen at least...or at most...errr...but I know for a fact that the beast had blowholes or spouts...or something...all over it's body...a dozen or two...no, just one, it was a dozen...or was it? It was dark...but the one thing I know I saw for sure was some poor soul skewered through by the beasts mighty horn.  Like a unicorn...NO! Like the devil's rhino, it was!...anyhow I can't keep discussin' the details...I'm far too drunk...err...I mean scared!  Scarred?  Yes, scared and scarred!" '''Validate or dismiss the rumour. What did Thirsty Noah see that night?'''

Solution
War Frigate. What Thirsty Noah really saw (in his drunken haze):
 * Six arms = six cannons
 * 24 Attacks = 24 shots
 * 12 spouts = 12 bilge stations
 * Horn with poor soul scewered at end = the mermaid figurine beneath the pole at the front of the ship.
