The cook that served aboard the Edinburgh Trader.

"Aye, the Cook. Perfect."

―Blackbeard shortly before punishing the Cook

A cook is a crew member working aboard a ship. The cook's principal role is to ensure the preparation and serving of meals that are both delicious and nutritious.

The galley where food was cooked was just in front of the foremast. During rough weather the cook douses the stove to reduce the risk of a fire. The crew has to make do with cold food until the sea is calmer.
