What is the name of the Assassin’s Creed III protagonist’s ship?

The story behind the answer

The Assassin’s Creed III protagonist’s ship is named Aquila.

Connor, also known as Ratonhnhaké:ton, uses the Aquila during naval missions set around the Atlantic Ocean. The ship is a fictionalized sloop that Connor and his allies use to intercept enemy vessels and support the revolutionary cause.

Assassin’s Creed III is set mainly during the American Revolution, with major locations including Boston, New York, and the surrounding frontier. Naval gameplay became a significant feature of the game, introducing ship steering, broadside cannons, weather, and boarding actions.

The Aquila is different from Edward Kenway’s Jackdaw in Black Flag. Shay Cormac commands the Morrigan in Assassin’s Creed Rogue, while Galca Durm is the ship associated with Arbaaz Mir in the Chronicles setting. These names are often mixed up because naval travel appears in several Assassin’s Creed games.
