Hey, I'm trying to figure out how to knock out some of these log accomplishments, and I thought I would solicit some help. I also thought maybe I could help out some others, too. Below is a list of the ones of which I know. Feel free to add on as you figure them out:

*Beginner - Mast Sharkrunner: 1, 10, 50, 100 successful encounters
*Complete Sets for Shark Individuals - duh!
*Attentive, Devoted, Addicted: respond in time to 6, 12, 24 encounters
*Mentor: raise a member to skill 20
*Trainer: raise a crew member to max stamina 20
*Frugal: Accumulated $100k in bank
*Bonding: 25 successful encounters with a single shark
Jack of All Trades: Successful encounter with each technique
*Shopaholic: acquire each type of equipment
*The Norman Endowment: Collect Data on each shark.

Missing: Safety First, Drill Instructor, Professor, Guru, Adrenaline Junky, Explorer, Heir Apparent, The Dreyfus Medal, Ultimate Sharkrunner. A little help?

KKC9: I'm trying to figutre out how to earn Explorer. It's been posted that you need to only travel 1000+ miles, but I've definitely gone beyond that. Might it have to be in one plotted trip? You've posted elsewhere that you've gone 1,500+ miles on a voyage, but you don't have Explorer (yet). Might it be 1,000+ miles without returning to a port? Any ideas? Anyone?

Dragonfire~ I got lightning reflex wile I was logged in, so I guess you don't have to respond to an alert.
It's strange that I've been logged in a few times and "think" I responded right away but didn't get the lightning reflex. Confused Then all of the sudden this afternoon I got it.

I got Explorer yesterday. It didn't make much sense: I already had gone a couple of thousand miles already, and was in the middle of a 1k journey, and it just happened. No money reward though. Just kudos. Sometimes it just has to be about the adventure, I guess...

Well im missing a few accomplishements how to get them, like everyone else, professor, Drill Instrutor, and Ultimate Sharkrunner, which by the way Heir Apparent to me sounds a bit difficult, since everytime i have someone on Skill 20 with atleast 20 encounters next thing i kno they get attack, thats not cool, any way to make it easy like a shark to go for or somethin?

Hmmm, if you are having trouble getting 50 encounters with someone, just do very low risk encounters.. You won't make much money, but your encounters will go up easily..

I'm gunna guess and say drill instructor has to do with getting all your crews stanima very low (0?), but again, thats just a guess.

ok i think i have already had all my crew at 0 stamina, i think but im goin to try that it sounds possible, n by the way quick dumb question, if one buys a new boat do one needs to rebuy all equipment cuz in the real world when one buys a new boat we just take our equipment over, does that work here?

So far on my log, I have beginner sharkrunner with a "1" on it, attentive, and lightning reflexes, and I'm a rookie, so being a rookie doesn't mean inexperenced!

I got the professor today- four crew members with 20+ skill

so I'm guessing drill instructor is 20+ stanima for four.

I have a question, to get Safety First, what do one need to do? because i had 25 encounters, i counted with no attack, using Remote Camera but it did not give me the accomplishement, any reason?

Remote camera use does not count towards your number of successful encounters. Otherwise I would have gotten the 50 encounters accomplishment hours ago. The camera also pays (at least for me) less than $100 per encounter (usually about $75-$90). It's taken me about three hours of solid shark-babysitting to earn $10k with it. I sure hope Jack Of All Trades pays well...

For the jack of all trades, you need to use every technique with every shark or just one? cuz if thats the case, man thats time consuming, which the games its meant like that so dont worry i already know that
