There was absolutely no reason for him to construct an expedition from nothing when countless crews had already spent years learning how to survive those waters.
He simply needed to find one willing to take him aboard.
And so he looked through his options, one matter that caught his attention.
Joining an expedition was apparently not as simple as paying a fee and boarding a ship.
At least, not for the more reputable ventures.
Every expedition had its own recruitment standards.
Smaller independent crews often accepted almost anyone capable of paying their share of the expenses.
Larger and more established fleets were considerably more selective.
They typically maintained recruitment boards where positions were listed according to necessity.
Mercenaries, archeologists, and specialized engineers.
Even mundane positions such as cooks, maintenance workers, communications officers, and logistics managers were regularly required.
