S.S. Clodock (destructible)
One of the first purpose built ships for the transportation of oil, the Clodock marked a shift from prior vessels in that instead of transporting it in barrels, the oil was pumped directly into tanks the length of the ship. Revolutionary for her time, she is now starting to show her age.

To start
Head to the engine room located at the middle of the ship
Turn the key to light the firebox
Once steam pressure is up, you’re good to go
To sink
In the captains cabin under their desk is a keypad.
Type 1 to engage the sink immediately
Type 2 to engage ‘dynamic sink’
In dynamic sink, you need to crank up the waves to begin sinking
Alternatively, if you manage to capsize her, the boiler will explode and split the ship anyway…
Notes
Each fluid tank has 1 pump and a series of valves connected. This means you can’t pump in and out of the same tank. Each tank also has a numbered fluid nozzle on the deck for ease of use.
It is recommended to use the ballast pumps to counteract any listing created by pumping fuel out
