Brilliant I have played this game now and then for years and still someone finds out something like this, which I have had absolutely no clue about.

Anyways I'm glad I know now and I'm sure I'll end up in a situation where I might be able to save my career, boat, crew and dignity with this bit of knowledge Your post would go to my top 10 list for most valuable clues on playing SH3 if I had kept such a list . Maybe I should from this day on...
