So, ~6500 malfunctioning valves and ~6500x few other broken minor things?
Perhaps they can offset that by letting sailors bring more of their personal effects as long as they count as "minor things" and place it in those places :P

    No, the valve still functioned. It just took all the threads holding it in to the bottle with it when it took the rocket sled to the bilge.

    Edit: 6500 valves would be almost all of them.

    All those words made sense. Separately.

    Do you want to understand what it all means?

    Now that I read it after having eaten some food, I actually managed to get the picture.
    Of both, the previous - valve leaving the bottle - and the - projectile into the bilge.

    Okay, I had to look up "bilge" for that.

    Although I don't remember there being threads to hold down a valve wherever I saw them, I'd rather not have to visit a ship again, just to make sure.
