I had the same feeling. I think that the author did a great job in describing what was happening on the ship; I was still able to follow the story even without knowing any of the terminology used. Also, I found the story so captivating that I didn't feel bored or irritated by those complicated parts.evraealtana wrote: ↑01 Apr 2019, 15:22 I'm a nautical novice - I knew nothing about anything. While reading, I repeatedly got a feeling of "yes, mmmhmmm, that sounds boaty", without having any idea what was actually happening. I think I might have followed the details better if I had bothered to look up the words I didn't know, but I guess I didn't care enough to study. The relevant details were explained well enough that I could follow the plot.
