Thought we might want to bring some of this to one spot.

Here is an UPDATED linked image of the Seafaring Skills Chart for those of us that hate bouncing around looking for it and for some folks that can not read the thread.
This diagram needs some additional information to be used properly. The classes listed INSIDE a skill are pre-requisites for that class. However, here is where things get a little bit interesting. The percentages listed are EXPERIENCE CAPS within the SKILL, and are limited by having 100% in the Pre-Requisite Skill. You will notice not all classes require 100% in a pre-requisite skill to get started.
Here are two common examples:
+1st Example: Basic Naval Engineering - It has a pre-requisite of Basic Seafaring, but the Experience Cap is 30%. This means if i have 1%(greater than zero) to 99% in Basic Seafaring, I can gain up to 30% Skill in Basic Naval Engineering, before I am capped. I need 100% in Basic Seafaring to get 31%~100% in Basic Naval Engineering.
+2nd Example: Advanced Seafaring - It has a pre-requisite to gain even 1%. You must have Basic Seafaring at 100%, to get this skill to a 50% cap. Then you need Astronomy at 100% to go from 50~100% in the Advanced Seafaring skill.

Here is my best understanding of the what you gain after completing the classes.
