Safecracker Hints
How do I open the ship, using the maritime alphabet?
1 of 7: The maritime alphabet may be used to decode all the flags on the ship.
2 of 7: Each flag in the book either has a number printed beside it, or letter printed under it.
3 of 7: Look at the left-most flag on the ship and find that flag in the maritime alphabet. The letter right under the first flag is an R.
4 of 7: Work through the remaining flags on the ship, marking down the corresponding letter, or number, for each one.
5 of 7: When you've decoded all the flags, you should have the following message: "RIGHTTWOLEFTFOURRIGHT2RETURNTO5".
6 of 7: The complete message is: right two, left four, right 2, return to 5.
7 of 7: Enter the combination (Right 2, Left 4, Right 2, Left 5) using the dial on the front of the ship.
