Sailing (sage ability)

Sailing is a sage ability that employs the wind, acting on sails, to propel a craft on the surface of the water over a chosen course, which is often part of the larger plan of navigation. Like all athletic abilities, the amount of ability is ranked according the character's total knowledge, which is graded as none, insufficient, amateur, authority, expert and sage.

None

Those with zero knowledge cannot perform the ability in any degree at all, even as helpers aboard ship. Such persons may be minimally trained by characters with an authority grade
