Why isn't Peter Duck in Missee Lee? If he is almost a part of the Wild Cat as stated in Peter Duck he wouldn't want to miss the voyage. PLus wouldn't they have to start off in Lowestoft again, since that appears to be their home port where Peter Duck would meet them? Or have the crew grown up so they don't need that extra man like they did in the earlier book? Plus, don't the voyages in both Peter Duck and Missee Lee take rather short amounts of time for such a small boat? But it is fantasy...And in a compelty unrelated thread does anyone know how old the D's are supposed to be?
