Let’s learn how to scuttle a ship in Sea of Thieves and explore the various benefits this feature provides.
A ship is a home to pirates, and there’s not a single pirate in Sea of Thieves who hates his ship. However, sometimes pirates have to make the hard decision to scuttle their ship. Scuttling means sinking a ship deliberately by opening holes in its hull. There are some special scenarios that require scuttling a ship in Sea of Thieves.
In this article, we will tell players how to scuttle a ship in Sea of Thieves.
How To Scuttle a Ship in Sea of Thieves
As a ship is home to the player and other pirates, this decision is made by voting. Players can start the vote to scuttle, and if the majority votes yes, the process of scuttling starts. If a player is playing solo, only one vote will suffice. When it’s a two-player crew, both players have to say yes. However, when it comes to a three-player crew, two players must vote yes, and for four players, three players must vote to scuttle the ship. Follow these steps to scuttle the ship:
- Be on board or really close to the ship and open the “Game Options” menu. Players can open this menu by pressing ESC on PC and the Back button on the console.
- Select the “My Crew” option from the “Game Options” menu. At the bottom left, the option “Scuttle Ship” can be seen.
- Select the “Scuttle Ship” option to start the voting for scuttling. There are two options: either scuttle to a new sea (server) or scuttle the ship and spawn on a nearby island.

Benefits of Scuttling a Ship in Sea of Thieves
There are no great value benefits when it comes to scuttling a ship. However, there are some scenarios where this becomes the best option. These are the two reasons why players should scuttle a ship in Sea of Thieves:
- When a ship is already damaged beyond repair and players do not have enough resources to sustain the ship properly, it is better to scuttle the ship and respawn at a new safe location to restock and plan the journey.
- Sometimes, there are very persistent pursuers in Sea of Thieves. Scuttling a ship can help in escaping from these annoying crews.
