It's also a kind of running joke starting from a long ago Auria run, where Jan's character Edrick would occasionally mention that he had worked on a canal boat and knew how to pilot a boat. At once point, we had to go ashore somewhere that was full of plague, and the captain of the ship we were on wouldn't dock. He let us take a longboat ashore, which we were sure would be fine because Edrick could pilot a boat. It turned out that he actually only had one rank of boat pilot, which in Rolemaster terms is only a little better than none at all, and we were soon drifting back out to sea. Many years later, my new character is a priest of Edrick, and also has one rank of boat pilot, as part of the religious tradition.
