Otter

The Otter is a combat ship, equipped with two Light Mortars or Cannons on the bow and four Heavy cannons per side. The gunners are protected by the raised sides of the Otter. Though strong, the Otter is heavily outclassed by the upgraded variants the Badger and the Phoenix. Because of this, the Otter is a rare sight.
