I'll make the change for next time I edit the rules, because I always
wanted the
adjective that described me best to be "salty" :-)

I suspect the rules might change in a bit, since I should get a chance
to playtest
them this weekend.

I also have some random thoughts about allowing firing at sails and
other
minor changes. I'm a little worried I'll make the system too complex.
I was shooting for Simple & Flavorful (which I thought Mike's orignal
rules
were pretty close ... thanks again Mike!).

Thanks, I'd love to hear your (and anyone else's) input.
