Question 1: Which of these tools won’t work reliably while in a storm?
- Pocket Watch
- Compass
- Spyglass
Answer: Compass
Fact: A compass won’t work reliably in a storm. Storms can create magnetic disturbances that affect the compass needle, making it point in the wrong direction. A pocket watch and a spyglass are not affected by storm conditions in the same way.
Question 2: Which of these instruments can you use to play a shanty?
- Flute
- Hurdy-Gurdy
- Piano
Answer: Hurdy-Gurdy
Fact: You can play a shanty on any instrument, but the hurdy-gurdy is most closely linked to folk and sea shanty music. Its droning sound gives the rhythm sailors would sing along to. A flute can also add melody to a shanty, while a piano can be used too, though it’s less traditional.
Question 3: Which of these cursed cannonballs will stop a ship’s cannons from firing?
- Peaceball
- Venomball
- Grogball
Answer: Peaceball
Fact: The Peaceball is the cursed cannonball that stops a ship’s cannons from firing. When it hits, it makes the enemy cannons go silent for a short time. The Venomball spreads poison, and the Grogball makes the crew drunk, but neither affects the cannons.
