I think you accomplished the goals lined out in your Recommended Play section of "Lighthearted Horror".
I'm not sure if all the text was intended to be italicized and there's a few sections that stand out as un-italicized VS the rest of the page (excluding stat blocks), like pages 3, 10, and 15. I liked the illustrations you included and the layout really captures the feeling of hand-written notes or an ancient document.
Salt water draining negative energy from Undead was an interesting idea, especially given the monsters and the setting of a boat. I loved the Passenger Motivations table and the Ship's Manifest and the Passenger Quarters and Travel Trunks tables - these are useful even outside the context of this adventure, great stuff.

Excellent use of seafaring. The module itself is formatted well and looks great. It makes me think that was posted on a wanted board of a sea port
