Description

<Gazlowe spreads the plans on the table and jabs a tiny finger aft of the ship below the waterline.>

There! The hull is thinnest here, where the crankshaft meets the paddlewheel. And it's right next to the magazine!

<name>, I can't be held responsible if some enterprising Horde <class> were to attach a limpet mine to that part of the hull. Not even if I supplied the mine. And paid him. Handsomely. The ship is anchored just southeast of here... go to it!

Then radio me with this stolen gnomecorder.

Go over to the ship at 72,85. If you swim it is quicker but you will encounter a couple of makrura along the way. Go to the back of the ship near the paddlewheel. You will see a fairly large wooden section underwater. If you run your cursor over it the tooltip will indicate it to be the thinnest part of the ship.

Click on the Limpet mine in your inventory and your done. After your done Gazlowe can give you your next quest immediately.

For those unfamiliar with ship configuration (like myself), don't bother going onto the top of the ship itself via the dock - nothing is there! You can find the thinnest part of the hull by physically swimming underneath the ship!

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Club FooteNorthern Barrens · Level 5-30

    All this new friction between the Alliance and the Horde was leading to windfall profits, until Rear Admiral Hartley sailed into MY harbor and started poking his prow into my business. He's been searching and seizing vessels flying horde colors with the goal of depriving them use of a neutral port.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Ammo KerblammoNorthern Barrens · Level 5-30

    Hartley must've unloaded all of his ordnance along the beach. Let's pull his teeth out, <name>! Run along the shore and look for his munitions stockpiles. Light 'em up and he'll be land-locked and unarmed while the Bellipotent is repaired. I'll meet you back here in Ratchet.
