Ramming Speed is a sailing skill which hurls a pirate's ship forward at great speed; any vessel in its path suffers wood-splintering hull damage! This skill is unlocked at Sailing Level 12. When the captain calls it out, the vessel lurches ahead at maximum speed.
WARNING - When in use NO OTHER SAILING SKILL will work and the ship CANNOT steer!

Ship VS Ship[]
In SvS combat, this skill will knock down a target ship's captain and prevent him or her from attacking for a short while. On rare occasions, when an Enemy Ship Rams directly into a gunner, or near them, that gunner will be knocked out and will not be able to leave their cannon, nor shoot from it. A member of the ship's crew must heal them, or they will be sent to jail.
