Intelligence, you will have a starting 30% chance to preform each of the following Sailor duties: Anchor, Captain,
Compass, Docking, First Mate, Lookout, Navigation, Sails, Star-Charting.
For each duty preformed successfully, the % chance to successfully preform another of the same will increase by +1.
