Trouble shooting: 
   Boarding ship - if you are unable to board your ship, try <recall ship> first, 
         if still unable to board try <board [player name]>, if still having  
         issues contact an immortal, and remember to ensure you see the ship  
         you are trying to board is docked and visible in the room look. 
         Note: ships are not visible in the dock if they have not been  
         loaded or used after a period of time, try board/recall 
   Steering ship - if you are unable to steer or sail your ship ensure you 
         are in the correct room, ensure there is a wheel or you can try <look logbook> 
         Ensure you have hired at lease 1 crew, you can not sail a ship without  
         at least one crew but you can manually <steer [direction]>
