[Alucard's set to argue that no, food's more important especially since there's little remaining light, but it isn't worth it. He and Hector are managing right now, and keeping the two of them in good terms is important.
So Alucard heads into the captain's quarters, careful to keep his focus on only the maps and charts. It takes a few minutes to find them, but once that happens, Alucard settles himself down on the floor and proceeds to unroll everything that's pertinent around him. The problem, in so far as he can tell, is the approach to the island itself. It's a nightmare of sandbars at any point besides the highest possible tide, and thus they'll have to leave the ship far at sea. That means letting the Belmont know they're approaching and...
...ugh.
Determined to find another route, Alucard keeps with the maps and charts for a bit yet, taking until they're well at sea to find anything that has a chance of working without giving too much away. Once he's at that point, Alucard gets to his feet and steps over the maps, going for the door.

His head pokes out, looking for Hector.]
