Trading under the ocean is difficult, it takes practice, it's frustrating to no end BUT its really really profitable! The value trading between UO (under ocean)
trade posts as well as from UO to Land and vice versa cannot be beaten by any other over land trade route.

Scattered along the ocean bed in a NON random pattern you will find highways. When on a highway you can travel at lightning speeds. Why? Breath. You never run out
of breath. The ocean topography map shows you where these highways are.

Highways are located between depths 100 and 230. When you walk off a ridge and you will as they are all separated keep an eye on the horizon and your depth meter to
find the next highway. As soon as you wander off the ridge to a depth below 230 you will be vulnerable to Mob factions which are nasty nasty critters.

Above 100 depth in shallow waters close to land you will start to encounter bottom feeders. These are smaller ocean critters easily defeated but will try to block your
way to land.

The golden rule of UO trading is - Keep to the highways!

TIP: Face the direction you want to go and just type north, this will allow you to see what is ahead and move towards the highways accordingly.

In order to trade goods under the ocean you must use a snail drawn sealed underocean vessel or snail for short. This freight carrier is an enclosed environment so
your goods don't spoil specially created to navigate the ocean. Snails will not move out into open water and can only move along the bottom or adjacent to UO land
such as mountains or ridges.

Once you reach a trade post you intend to trade from, remember to hold your Krakens bladder and type DD to stick to the ocean floor. This will ensure you stay rooted
on the ground and you don't lose your snail.

If you are in a trade party remember that your followers will not automatically follow your movement, this is where Seahorses come in. Wait a few minutes and seahorses
will come find you, their playful nature guarantees they will arrive. Now once everyone is mounted including the form leader all the follow can simply type NN to move
towards the form leader.

NOTE: NN will only move a player one room, you will need to do this continually to keep up.

As we now know the coordinates of all the trade shops you will use this knowledge to navigate the highways and find your way to the next trade post.

If you intend to leave the ocean with your snail this can only be done in certain locations. In order to leave with the snail you must do so where the road is adjacent
to the ocean. This is an example of a perfect spot to leave the ocean at the City of Trellor.

Now just simply walk your snail to the trade post as you would do when trading on land.
