Key points about distance & time in the West Indies (1700s–1800s):

• Regional scale with a speed of about 9 knots:

  • Port-au-Prince → Cartagena ≈ 520 nm (2–4 days sailing).

  • Havana → Veracruz ≈ 600–700 nm (3–5 days).

  • Jamaica → Cartagena ≈ 400 nm (2–3 days).

  • Havana → Port Royal (Jamaica) ≈ 700 nm (3–6 days).

  • By comparison: Atlantic crossing (e.g., Cádiz to Havana) ≈ 3,800 nm, often 6–8 weeks.

• Sailing speeds:

  • A frigate or fast merchantman could average 6–9 knots over long periods in trade-wind conditions.

  • That’s 150–200 nautical miles per day on a reliable passage.

    • So in good weather, ships could “hop” between colonies fairly quickly.

      >Common used Terms that make Roleplay much more fun if you know them:

    • Crew Positions:
      Captain: Elected (by pirates) or appointed (by navies); commands the ship, leads in battle, and represents the crew in diplomacy.
      First Lieutenant: Second-in-command; enforces discipline, oversees daily duties, and assumes command if the captain is absent.
      Quartermaster: On pirate ships, often equal in authority to the captain in matters of discipline and loot. He represents the crew’s interests, manages supplies, and divides plunder. (on Pirate ships The Quartermaster and the Lieutenant were often the same persondue to less strict Hirarchy)
      Boatswain (Bosun): Supervises rigging, sails, anchors, and deck crew. Keeps the ship seaworthy. Carries a whistle to issue commands.
      Helmsman: Steers the ship at the wheel or tiller, obeying the captain’s or officer’s orders. Needs steady nerves in storms and combat.
      Navigator: Charts the course, reads maps, stars, and instruments. Essential for long voyages.
      Carpenter: Repairs hull damage, masts, and leaks. A skilled carpenter could save a ship after battle.
      Surgeon: Treats wounds, amputates limbs, and tries to keep scurvy at bay. On pirate ships, sometimes just a butcher with sharp tools.
      Gunner (Master Gunner): In charge of cannons, powder, and shot. Trains the gun crews and oversees loading and firing drills.
      Powder Monkey: Usually young boys; run gunpowder from the magazine to the cannons during battle. Fast, dangerous, and deadly work.

    • Locations on a Ship: (Exterior)
      Main Deck: The open deck where most of the action happened: crew worked the sails, cannons were mounted, and boarding battles were fought.
      Quarterdeck: A raised platform at the rear, usually reserved for officers. The captain and quartermaster directed the crew from here.
      Poop Deck: The highest deck at the very back, giving a commanding view (used for navigation and signaling).
      Bow (Prow): The very front of the ship, sometimes with a figurehead. Pirates might sit here on lookout duty. Bow Chasers (Cannons aimed forward were here too)
      Forecastle (Fo’c’sle): The raised deck at the bow; often where the crew gathered, fought, or relaxed.
      Crow’s Nest: Lookout point high on the main mast, where a sailor could spot ships or land.

    • Locations on a Ship: (Interior)
      Gun Deck: The level where cannons were mounted, with hatches that opened for firing broadsides. (Stern Chasers Cannons aimed backwards were here)
      Tween Deck (in between Deck) a Deck between the Main Deck and the Deck below that usually low headspace
      Orlop Deck: The lowest deck, partly below the waterline; used for storage, ballast, and sometimes surgery during battles.
      Cargo Hold: Where loot, food, gunpowder, and supplies were stored.
      Crew Quarters: Hammocks strung below deck, often cramped and dim. On smaller ships, the crew might just sleep wherever space allowed.
      Brig: A makeshift jail or locked space in the hold for prisoners.
      Galley: The kitchen, often just a small stove (“caboose”) near the stern or on deck.
