Every night the people gather in the Auction House to amuse themselves by spending a little money. Ah, the rich! Auctions may be a race to see who can bid the highest, but I'll let you in on a little secret: the key to winning an auction is to be both patient and bold. I'm serious, fry! From what I hear, they get some great things up on that auction block, too. ...Like an extra-fast sail, among other things.

According to [[Eiji Aonuma]], the boat could not go any faster in the original [[Nintendo GameCube]] version due to the fact that the world could not load quickly enough to keep up with it, but the [[Nintendo Wii U|Wii U]]'s advanced power makes it possible.{{Ref|source=[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZRTakeKTbw Wii U Developer Direct - The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD @E3 2013]|quote=On the GameCube, in the previous version, it took some time to load the ocean data, because it was so vast. So, if the ship had gone too fast, it would have sailed to the edge of the ocean and fallen off. Now that it's on Wii U, the capabilities have been enhanced greatly, and we're now able to load the entire ocean at once. Now that we're able to do that, we could speed up the ship.|speaker=[[Eiji Aonuma]]}} | According to [[Eiji Aonuma]], the boat could not go any faster in the original [[Nintendo GameCube]] version due to the fact that the world could not load quickly enough to keep up with it, but the [[Nintendo Wii U|Wii U]]'s advanced power makes it possible.{{Ref|source=[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZRTakeKTbw Wii U Developer Direct - The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD @E3 2013]|quote=On the GameCube, in the previous version, it took some time to load the ocean data, because it was so vast.
