Thanks for the tip eharper256!

You got me moving until the North Sea already.

[spoiler]But im stuck at finding more than 24 rations now. =P
The double sail, "basic" cannon (maybe there are more), sails for deep and shallow reefs really helped me.
Now the only problem is reaching the 3rd "geomagnetic Pole" on the lower left, and reaching the "Floating Island" in the west of the map.
I just hope there is an item to allow access across whirlpools *they really annoy.*
The town on the upper west of the south map also seen really impassable for now too.
If you have any tips and tricks. I hope you can help me with this.[/spoiler]

So I need to finish the 4th staratum to be able to continue to the 3rd North Ocean Checkpoint?

Ah, so after every Stratum you get more slots/items for the ship?

No surprise I can't progress that much, since I'm still in Stratum II ^^

[spoiler]
Got the first pole and the two close-by discoveries as well as 24 rations, +1 sail and can sail over the sargasso things, but thats it Those trade ships don't seem to want stuff I can find at the moment, either

I hope I find more cheap versions of the food, anyway. I like the half-price 20 step one ^^

Finally finished both South and North Seas!!! ^^

It was tough and money-wasting but in the end it felt good.

I need to thank both eharper and Self for helping me finish them. =D
