Captains!
The Armory delivers the new "Trade-In" feature in Update 12.7. While it's available, you'll be able to exchange your Premium or Special ships either for new ships or for great deals on new ships! In this article, we'll tell you how it works and how you can gain the maximum benefit from it.

How Does the Exchange Work?
To start the process, navigate to the corresponding tab in the Armory.
The rest is mostly a matter of choice. You'll see a menu where you can select the ship you would like to exchange.
Then, you'll be presented with a list of ships you can obtain as part of the exchange—simply make your choice.
What Should You Pay Attention To?
Not all ships can be exchanged or received as part of an exchange. You'll find the full list of eligible and available ships for the Trade-In feature in the Armory.
Exchange Rules
Within one exchange operation, you can choose only one Premium or Special ship in your possession to swap for a new one. The number of exchange operations is unlimited.
The exchanged ship will be removed from your account. The ship's equipment, economic bonuses, and camouflages will be moved to the Inventory tab. The ship's Commander will be sent to the Reserve. The obtained ship is credited without a Commander and Port slot.
Any ships you've exchanged under the Trade-In program can't be restored via the VRT (Vehicle Restoration Tool).
How It Works
The exchange value of your ship reduces the total cost of the new ship you want to exchange her for. If you exchange a rare ship that's currently difficult or impossible to obtain, her exchange value increases. You'll see the exact exchange value when you select a ship to exchange.
For example: You've decided to exchange
, which is priced at 12,500 Doubloons in the Armory. Of this total, 300 Doubloons covers the cost of purchasing a Port slot when obtaining her. Thus, Alabama's value is 12,200 Doubloons. The exchange value is half the total value—6,100 Doubloons. You want to obtain , which is priced at 11,000 Doubloons. With the exchange value of deducted, will cost you only 4,900 Doubloons!If the exchange value of your ship exceeds that of the obtained ship, there will be no surcharge. The price difference is not compensated.
Helpful Tip
Captains, keep in mind that the way in which you previously obtained the ship is irrelevant. Meaning that if you purchased a ship for Coal, you can now exchange her for a discount and purchase a ship more cheaply for Doubloons. By the way, you can still purchase lots of ships for Coal in the Armory.
