3	Financial issues I am under the supervision of the Minister of Commerce. Unfortunately, the bureaucracy has delayed the finances needed for the investigation. I am afraid the trail will go cold till I receive the money.		x30
4	Let's begin! That's very nice of you, captain. So if your crew is ready, we can start the investigation. Let's sail to the Diamond Shoals, that's where the ship was washed ashore.
Let's begin! Grab your payment and let's continue the investigation.

Lawrence Ritchey II		Send	Bonus	Reward	Lawrence Ritchey II Contracts info Contracts: 4 Voyage: 2h Crew: 30 Ships: Sailing ( 1) Contractor requirements Level: 20 Complete: L. Ritchey I Reward: 1
1	Diamond Shoals Be careful to anchor your ship in safe distance from the shore. The rocky reef is dangerous. Let's have a look if we can find some wreckage left among the rocks.		x6
2	In contact Give your men radio transmitters and let's spread out. We will find more wreckage like this but we should stay in contact at all times. This is a dangerous area.		x1
3	Bountiful waters I have seen some fine fish roaming these waters. But we have no time for fishing, we have other work to do. Some lucky fishermen will enjoy this area.		x25
4	The mystery! The ship was found here completely abandoned. There is no clue as to what happened to the crew. Help me collect the wooden splinters, we may find something of interest among them.		x15
Reward Grab your payment and let's continue the investigation.

Lawrence Ritchey III		Send	Bonus	Reward	Lawrence Ritchey III Contracts info Contracts: 4 Voyage: 2h Crew: 30 Ships: Sailing ( 1) Contractor requirements Level: 20 Complete: L. Ritchey II Reward: 1
1	Looking for a clue Call your sailors to help us get all the wreckage on your ship. I will inspect it in my office. I hope we will find some clue among the things here.
2	First witness These iron bars must have belonged to Carroll Deering too. Let's take them with us. Before we go I want to speak with the lighthouse keeper who found the wreck. Wait for me on the ship.		x4
3	I don't feel so good The lighthouse keeper told me the ship was previously sighted by his colleague from the lighthouse on Cape Lookout. We should go there next. But first I need to buy some medicine against seasickness.		x30
4	To the bottom I feel better now. I don't have a sailor's stomach but that won't keep me from finishing this investigation. Prepare to dive. The waters around Cape Lookout are deep.		x1
Reward Grab your payment and let's continue the investigation.

1	Cape Lookout You should go and leave the rocks and materials at the nearby port. We need to free cargo space for more evidence we will find here.		x6
2	Strange waters I will go to the lighthouse, you search the surrounding area but stay in touch at all times. These are strange waters and Deering is not the only ship to have disappeared here.		x1
3	Concentrate, please From the lighthouse keeper, I learned that the ship had lost her anchors in a storm. What have you found? More fish? If we don't find pieces of the crew in their bellies, they won't help us.		x25
4	More evidence Do you see those planks in the water? They look like parts of the ship's bow. Collect them and we will have a closer look in the lab.		x15
Reward Grab your payment and let's continue the investigation.

3	Unkept promises The forensics team will take a look at the debris while we continue the investigation outside. Minister promised them new equipment a long time ago. I guess we will have to buy it ourselves now.		x30

1	Barbados What a nice tropical island. It's a pity we are not here on holiday. If I could, I would build a small hut here on the beach and not move a finger. Don't listen to me. Let's get back to work!		x12
2	No drinking! There is an inn where the first mate and the crew were drinking while stopping on Barbados. Let's go visit it. But no alcohol! We are at work here.		x60
3	Follow the clue I've got a tip. We should go speak with Captain Norton, he was here when the crew from Deering arrived. I will go speak with him, you try asking around the inn some more. Let's stay in contact!		x1

1	Maybe a mutiny So Norton spoke with the first mate. There are signs of a conflict between the first made and the captain of the Deering. Could a mutiny be behind this accident? Let's discuss this at dinner.		x50
2	Suspect We should investigate the past of the first mate. Find out more about him. Leave it to me, you must stay here and help finish the repairs of Norton's ship. I promised it to him.		x8
3	Missing anchors e need to inspect the waters around Cape Fear. I received some new information. A witness claims the Deering got caught in a storm there. Let's get the diving equipment and hurry to the cape.		x1
4	Quick fix How many lifeboats do you have on the ship? We could send a search party on each boat to cover the area faster. These boats are not seaworthy? I am sure you can fix them with a few planks.		x30
Reward Grab your payment and let's continue the investigation.

Lawrence Ritchey VIII		Send	Bonus	Reward	Lawrence Ritchey VIII Contracts info Contracts: 4 Voyage: 2h Crew: 30 Ships: Sailing ( 1) Contractor requirements Level: 20 Complete: L. Ritchey VII Reward: 1
1	At Cape Fear e found the anchor so it seems the ship did have some difficulties. But it still does not explain the missing crew. Can your sailors take the anchor to the lab? We should continue the investigation.
2	Heading to Rio The next stop on our investigation voyage will be Rio de Janeiro. Carroll A. Deering delivered a cargo of coal to Rio before she disappeared. Maybe we will find some clues there.		x12
3	Old friend aptain Wormwell of the Deering met here his old friend, Captain Goodwin. We should go speak to him. Take some money in case we will have to grease some pockets.		x60
4	New information Captain Goodwin said he helped the Deering get new ship reflectors. We should inspect the old ones. They will be in a nearby scrapyard.		x1
Reward Grab your payment and let's continue the investigation.

1	Tension on the ship Goodwin also mentioned that Deering's captain spoke badly of his crew. There was definitely some tension here. Let's inspect the evidence we have collected until now.		x8
2	Day off There are still so many questions. Let's take a day off to clear our head. How about a calm fishing trip? The fresh air and sound of water help me think.		x50
3	No answers I will have to close the case soon. But there is still no clear answer to what happened. Let's take a closer look at the ship's reflectors we collected in Rio. Maybe they can shine some light on this case.		x1
4	Lab test Let's try to reconstruct the ship's voyage in our pool. We will need a small model of the Deering and a provisional reef to embody the Diamond Shoals.		x30
Reward Grab your payment and let's continue the investigation.

Lawrence Ritchey X		Send	Bonus	Reward	Lawrence Ritchey X Contracts info Contracts: 4 Voyage: 2h Crew: 30 Ships: Sailing ( 1) Contractor requirements Level: 20 Complete: L. Ritchey IX Reward: 1
1	Solved or not I will pin this on a mutiny. The sailors must have died during the wrecking and a strong current took the bodies away. We should pay the ships sailing in this area to look out for possible clues.		x60
2	Memorial Let's hope someone will find the poor sailors so their families can bury their bodies. We should at least build them a memorial for now.		x12
3	Reconstruction		x8
4	Light the way And don't forget the reflectors. They will help you find the way and hopefully, Carroll A. Deering will avoid any further misfortune.		x1
Reward The case is closed. Although much remains a mystery. Anyway, thank you for your help, captain.
