How to Rename Your Ship in Windrose

Congratulations on moving closer to commanding your very own vessel in Windrose! Upgrading from the default ship name and taking to the seas is an exciting milestone. If you are looking to unlock your first vessel, repair it, or personalize its name, this guide will walk you through the entire process step-by-step.

Unlocking Your First Ship

Acquiring your first vessel is tied directly to your progression in the main story. Here is how to kick off your seafaring journey:

1. Complete the Tutorial: Progress through the early stages of the game until you successfully mine your first batches of Copper.
2. Return to Camp: Head back to your main base of operations.
3. Speak to Dr. Galen: Locate Dr. Galen at his usual camp station. Speaking with him will unlock the main story quest titled "I Need a Bigger Boat."

Repairing the Shipwreck

Once the quest sends you to locate a shipwreck, you will need to gather a specific set of crafting resources to restore the vessel to working order.

The Simple Steps

• Dock your ship at the Wharf you painstakingly built.
• Interact with the Wharf and click to manage your cargo.
• Press D to access the cosmetic customization menu without breaking your keyboard.
• Type in your new name, assuming you possess basic literacy.
• Confirm your choices, get your flags right, and go dominate the archipelago.
