The Wharf is the central ship-management building in Windrose. It is the station players build to equip cannons on their Ketch, construct new ships, and rebuild destroyed vessels. The Wharf must be placed on the shoreline.

Ship Repair Flow
If your ship is destroyed at sea or sailed out of bounds, return to shore
Use the Wharf's Repair/Salvage option for 20 Wood
Press K to respawn the repaired ship at your current coastline
Ship destruction is not permanent. Rebuilding costs roughly three palm trees of Wood. The much more painful loss is the time spent sailing out and back, which is why players often keep a Fast Travel Bell at their home Wharf to minimize the round trip.
