Codette Bonny narrowed her eyes as she studied the map. She wasn't much for hard labor, but she could read and write, a talent that made her a decent navigator with a map.
Her red-blonde hair was tied up high on her head, the curls spilling around just above her eyes. She wore a white, 3/4 sleeves, tunic top, and a plain under-bust burgundy corset, holding her ample breasts in place. Soft tan, leather pants encased her shapely legs, until reaching the short black boots she wore, buckled against her ankles.
Codette marked out a course, taking into warning all the things the captain had forced out of Scarlett. A slow smile spread her lips. Codette looked out over the ocean, and her smile widened. The sea made her feel at peace. As dangerous as it was for a woman, it was better than being stuck back in Roseau with an arranged marriage.
She rolled up the map with her notes inside. Rushing up to the helm, she ignored the prolonged stares her shipmates gave her hourglass frame. "Captain, I have our heading." she unrolled her map. "If we listen to Scarlett Andrews, Santo Domingo is where our route begins. If we follow this course, we should arrive at port in 3 days. 2 with fair weather."
