Author's Notes:

Today, Seaworthy is proud to present a female cast member! Va-va-boom! You knew this was coming...

So anyway, meet Tess. She's a knock-out sea gal in more ways than one (Ka-BAM!). She's tough enough to earn a place of respect in a crew full of sea-rats, and even holds a place among the ship's officers. Only Bellfont is before her in rank, but she often proves to be more of a "Number One" than the ship's first mate. She'll be a good one.
