And when we sink, we sink, no big deal. We pull up our big boy pants and sail back into the fray. Pretty soon our bounty is back up and we continue to "Rack" up the score.

I understand the frustration, it gets to me as well occasionally. But I enjoy the SvS aspect so much that I do it anyway.

That's what I prefer to do but....
I ended up going with someone who told me to take the wheel after we sunk.
I thought it wont work but it did and the next thing I know I can repair while the ship is moving.
Weird.

Repair-while-sailing glitch is not the same as the auto-repair glitch. Both are bad; even though both were reported, big D only "fixed" the auto-repair glitch once by making it slightly more obtuse (instead of just drawing cutlass while hammering, now you have to do a skill action, before pressing shift.)

Did it do me any good to report it? No, in fact, someone named MacIronhawk recently made freakish bizarre accusations about my motivations, but big D never did fix the reported glitch.
