Wheel of the HMS Cape

The Wheel of the HMS Cape is a powerful magic item in Ultima IV, which makes a frigate much stronger in ship-to-ship fight, once used.

The HMS Cape was a mighty ship, built by the ship builder Hawkins, it was said that the stirring wheel was magically enhanced to make the ship stonger, giving it more endurance. But even the wheel couldn't prevent the HMS Cape from being sunk by a horrible storm. Years later, the Stranger heard about the wheel. Faced with the pirate fleet guarding the Isle of the Avatar after gaining all eight partial avatarhoods, he/she found the wreck, and with it the wheel, at the Cape of Heroes, a little southeast of the Shrine of Honor. With the wheel mounted on the ship, it was easy to blast away the pirate fleet, and reach the Abyss.
