If you want to add trinkets and use the new Sea of Thieves ship customization features in the Captaincy update, then you do need to purchase one of the ship types on offer.

    Just after you’ve bought your ship, you’ll be given a short tutorial of how the new Captaincy update works. This will introduce you to the new customization options Rare added for your ship in Sea of Thieves.

You can place trinkets in your ship, redecorate the interior of your Captain’s room, and even keep track of your ship stats using the Captain’s Logbook. It will cost Gold to decorate your ship which you can farm by going on adventures.

    Where is the ship customization chest in Sea of thieves?

    The Ship Customization Chest is a fixed item that may be found next to the Shipwright Shop in Outposts or at the dock in The Reaper’s Hideout. Both locations can be accessed via the Shipwright Shop. This chest gives players the ability to browse and change the visual cosmetics that are equipped to their Ships.

    One of the coolest parts about the new update is the cosmetic damage to your ship will persist. This will remain even as you change sessions meaning that your ship will constantly carry a lived in, battle-worn appearance. You can clean it up by going to the Adventure screen in the Main Menu and choosing Restore to fix it back to its default state.

    Besides the cosmetics, you can also name your own personal ship now. You should think long and hard before you make a final decision because it costs Ancient Coins to rename your sea vessel.
