Pay a fee to board a ship operating as a ferry. If a maximum fee has
been set with maxpay
, no more than that amount of gold will be
paid as a boarding fee (see See maxpay).
The board
order requires that the ship be operating as a ferry.
In other words, the ship's captain must have set a boarding fee with the
fee
order.
The board
order will fail if the ship is already overloaded, or
if the ship would be overloaded if the stack boarded the ship.
Note that the board
command, unlike the move
command,
ignores the admit list of the ship's captain.
Passengers waiting to board a ferry should use wait ferry
. Ferry
captains should sound their horn before departure with the ferry
order.
