Read a book
Get a girlfriend
Have a holiday
Find a new brand of Cognac or Whisky etc
Go for a walk
Watch television

  • Study the tutorials.
  • Find, download & study the installation flowchart.
  • Download necessary patches.
  • Update drivers on your pc.
  • Buy a celebration cake (optional).

As an addition to those - after you'll have the SS:

1.   Tell everyone that you finally got the SS
2.   Thank the developers for the wonderful game
3.   Get some cold beer
4.    Invite friends
5.    Invite sailors (optional)
6.    Invite some Spambot
7.    Throw a party
8.    Remember the date on which you finally got the SS
9.    Celebrate that day every year
10.  Repeat 2 - 7

Look, make the most of being young. So, you can't drink, drive, you go to school  but you don't have to *work*, get married, be forced to join the army.

Ah, to be less-old again (if I ever was)

I find the Red Eagle easy to steer. She is one of the most manoeuvrable vessels in the game.
