This profession covers a broad category of individuals able to operate a vessel.
The likelihood of encountering any given type depends on the surroundings and must be determined by the referee.
Types are:

    River Vessel Master
    Lake Vessel Master
    Sea-Coastal Vessel Captain
    Galley Captain
    Ocean-Going Vessel Captain

The latter sort should be very rare in a medieval-based technology milieu.
Note that each master or captain will have at least one lieutenant and several mates.
These sailors correspond to mercenary soldier lieutenants and serjeants in all respects.
For every 20 crewmen (sailors or oarsmen) there must be 1 lieutenant and 2 mates.
Sailing any vessel will be progressively more hazardous without master or captain, lieutenants, and mates.
(See WATERBORNE ADVENTURES).
The proper type of master or captain must be obtained to operate whatever sort of vessel is applicable in the waters indicated.
Cost for masters, captains and lieutenants is 100 g.p. per month per level of experience.
They also are entitled to a share of any prize or treasure taken at sea or on land in their presence.
The master captain gets 25%, each lieutenant gets 5%, each mate 1%, and the crewmen share between them 5%.
The remainder goes to the player character, of course.
