NOTE: Despite being learned from a University, this technology requires a tuition of 4 Tar.

Once the Test of Isis' Bounty is opened, it will also allow the building of Small Sailboats and Master Schooners.

Notes :

Fishing a Ship Debris will make you gain knowledge of Shipwright 3.
Submitting a Ship Debris to a University of Body for identification that turns out to be a piece of Isis' Bounty will make you gain knowledge of Shipwright 4.
1. Submit this piece of debris (1 Fragment of the Gilded Outer Hull - Can be fished anywhere) and unlock Shipwright 4 before building your Small Ship, so that your ship building xp will be used
Building a Master Schooner will make you gain knowledge of Shipwright 5 and 6.

NOTE: The Ferry Boat can be disassembled and re-assembled but this DOES NOT give any extra XP.

NOTE 2: Constructing a ferry boat does not give XP. Making the sail gives the XP. As disassembling gives the mats back, it's too easy to game the xp.
