I was wondering about this too! On another pirate of mine, Will McLegend, I won my Feats of Strength race and when it gave me the materials it said "Yarr! Yer trade worked!" If trading does come out, then that will probably be the message you receive if the trade works. I'm also assuming that since the huge update around Christmas last year was the Brig class and ship customization, that trading might surface around Christmas.
