Description

This is part of a keel. Put together several of these and you will have the keel of a ship.

The quality of the passive keel section affects the initial quality of the ship.
The quality of the active keel section affects the success chance when creating a ship.
The active keel section is damaged when you fail creating a ship.
Requires some ship building skill to build. If you don't have the option, make a few tenons first.
The felled tree must be in your inventory. Chop some logs off it if it is too heavy to pick up.
Keel sections do not fit into a cart, but felled trees can.
Keel sections CAN fit into a small and large crates inside large carts.
Two keel sections joined together as the hull of a boat will fit into a cart.
~~You can wrap a keel to fit it into a cart or raft.~~No longer true as the ability to wrap objects has been removed.
