 |{{ :pathfinder:off-the-shelf:ships_boats:pinnace.png?150 |}}| **A Pinnace**  does not have a civilian equivalent and are used as river and harbour patrol boats by the  national navies of Hann.  It is 30ft by 15ft, carries 5 tons of cargo, and costs 1000gp.  It carries a crew of five deckhands, and 10 marines (who double as rowers) It is decked with a low hold, and has a day cabin.  A Pinnace relies on a combination of oars and sail for propulsion.  However, it is little more than a stretched longboat, that carries more sail and has more rowers. |
 |{{  :pathfinder:off-the-shelf:ships_boats:light_galley4.png?150|}}| **The Light Galley** used by the Hann Navy is roughly 50 feet in length, powered by rowers and a square sail, and is generally used for harbour coastal patrols.  They can make longer voyages, but needs to take on supplies regularly, and are generally accompanied by a sailing vessel.  The Light Galleys is not a comfortable vessel when crossing deep water, and high seas can cause it to sink. \\ \\ **Details:**  Top cruising speed is 60, using sail and the standard complement of 8 rowers, which is sufficient to deal with most coastal vessels, and those entering or leaving harbours.  They can get a short burst of speed (75) by double staffing oars, but that isn't sustainable over any distance. They normally carry a ballista on the foredeck and rely on their complement of 10xmarines to subdue vessels. In times of war, they  carry a larger complement of marines. \\ [[pathfinder:off-the-shelf:ships_boats:shipsstats#light_galley_military_vessel|Click here for Light Galley specifications]]|

+|{{ :pathfinder:off-the-shelf:ships_boats:military_cutter.jpg?150 |}}|**The Military Cutter** is a light ship with a single mast, powered primarily by a large gaff sail ate the rear and multiple headsails. It does not have a fore or after deck, and all crew accommodation is below deck - seriously eating into cargo space. It's great boom and bowsprit limit it to carrying eight light ballistae (1x fore, 1x aft and 3x on each side). They need a sailimng crew of 20 and generally carry a complement of 10x Marines.  Cargo = 45 tons.|

 |{{:pathfinder:off-the-shelf:ships_boats:greatgalleon.jpg?150|}}| **A Man-o-War** is a large sailing ship which are commonly employed by navies as flagships for a small fleet - however, they are perfectly capable of operating alone.  They normally built with four masts, and all the upgrades that can be built into a new ship, as well as a cabin for the Commodore.  Then they are fitted with more upgrades, batteries of siege engines and a large detachment of marines.  Some Men-o-War carry over 100 marines.  Great Galleons are normally built as Men-o-War and are significantly more expensive than normal sailing ships.|
