As Naviwerks shows its rusty underbelly, it soon becomes clear that more than gold coin and stiff competition is at stake.With past, present, and future threatened, it's up to one un-employable chrono-engineer, and a ragtag pirate crew turned family to keep the world the way it should be.First order of business for the newly christened ship, The William Hunt? Retrieve the working model of Leonardo da Vinci's Gran Cavallo from Milan, Italy 1490.Now, they just have to be the first ones to reach it.
