The Sea Nymph is one of those sad ships that hasn' t aged well. She used to be a killer, but not anymore.

The original Sea Nymph, which dates back to the beginnings of Pirates, was fast (S+L), well-armed (3S,3L,3L,3S), and cheap (10 points). This version is slower, worse-armed, and more expensive. And what do you get in exchange for all these drawbacks? The rob-home-island ability. Do you know how many Pirate ships have this ability? (Hint: fourteen.) She's gone from a unique, inexpensive fighting ship to just another slow-moving thief. Her partner in crime in the PC release, the Wicked Wench, costs a bit more, but she has much better cannons and can steal far more gold.

This Sea Nymph's numbers are uniformly average, and that's a pretty good assessment of her value. Not bad, but certainly not good. Considering that she used to be good, that's kind of sad.
