Notes

• Trophies
  • Taking 100 trips in one ascension allows you to buy the Little Boat Trophy.
  • Taking 1000 trips in one ascension allows you to buy the Big Boat Trophy
• One of few areas that can be adventured at with zero HP.
• Trying to take a trip when falling-down drunk gives the message:

"You're too drunk to go on vacation. Which makes sense, somehow. Trust me."

• Trying to take a trip while Half-Astral gives the message:

"What? Where? Huh?"

• Trying to take a trip with less than 500 Meat gives the message:

"You can't afford to go on a vacation."

• Trying to take a trip with less than 3 adventures remaining gives the message:

"You don't have enough Adventures left."

• On average, you will receive (0.45 * mainstat) substats per stat-gaining trip, regardless of which location you are visiting. That is, if you are a moxie class and you shore for muscle, your muscle stat gain is based on your (unbuffed) moxie.
• On average, you will receive a stat-gaining trip approximately 70% of the time.
• If you have Torso Awaregness, you will receive a shirt trip approximately 2% of the time.
• Tower combat items will always drop if at least 35 turns have been expended since your last shore trip. Note this does not apply to the first shore trip of an ascension, and can be overridden by the Covert Operations adventure. This counter is reset if you happen to obtain another tower item before 35 adventures is up.
