The '''Marlin''' is a vessel built for mercantile purposes that sports a formidable armament, allowing her to comfortably defend against attackers provided she has a crew to man the guns. Despite her impressive firepower, her hull is fairly weak. Like the [[Beaver]] or [[Pheasant]], the Marlin is a common sight for players who trade and is a staple trade ship. The ships' cargo capacity is very good as well as its' speed making it a solid trade ship. One can use the Marlin until you get enough for an [[Mastiff]] which is an upgrade in cargo hold but a downgrade in speed.
