Hello all,

I am finding that I am a remarkably inept ship pilot. I have run aground of the shoals and reefs far more times than I care to admit. I will say that I use the advanced rules with planning the next turn's move in the current turn, but, really, there is no excuse for my poor seamanship.

So in lieu of becoming a better navigator, are there any "rules of the house" to re-launch or re-float a grounded ship using another vessel as tug or to use the ship's boats to pull it back into deeper waters? I recognize I would need to purchase or scratch build some jolly boat minis but that seems a more accessible option than learning to avoid the blasted shallows! Once I figure this out, I need to set up a mission to recapture the grounded HMS Victory. Letting her founder in range of the French coastal battery is simply NOT an option...

Any thoughts or direction to an already existent thread would be greatly appreciated.
