Plank Sawing is a Ship Repair mini-game pirates can play to fix their vessel at sea or to earn extra gold at the tables stationed around each Shipwright stand. These tables are marked with signs, indicating the difficulty of the repairs. The faster you go the more gold you will earn.

Play Plank Sawing[]
This challenge is to cut planks as quickly and neatly as possible. Using the mouse, left-click to grab the saw and drag it along the BLACK LINE in the wood plank. This can be straight, diagonal, corner or even zig-zag.
The closer you can stay to the black line, the better your score. If you stay on the black line PERFECT, you only need three cuts to complete the game.
With "Great," you just slightly went off that black line, with "OK," you were all over the shaded area of the board. If you go into the unshaded area of the board, you'll hear splintering wood, and the text "Terrible - board destroyed" will appear in red. And you must start again.
A mini-picture in the upper right will display the next kind of cut that will be needed.
Game Note[]
Some pirates suggest moving the mouse quickly once you have the saw lined up. Any adjustments or shaking of the mouse could result in an 'OK' or broken board. Others might suggest a steady hand since doing three perfect cuts cautiously will still take less time than 6-9 haphazard ones.
