Profession (Sailor) Day Job rolls and Andoran faction perks

[Astellus the Traveler]

I recently came across this question from a player, and did not see anything relevant when I did a search here, so here goes:

In the Pathfinder Society Field Guide, Andoran faction members can buy the Gray Corsair prestige award:

PFSFG wrote:

Gray Corsair (Fame 40, 2 PP, Eagle Knight) You serve

aboard an Andoren naval vessel, and gain a +3 bonus on
Profession (sailor) checks made while you serve on any
Andoren vessels.

Also in that book, any player can use prestige to buy a ship:

PFSFG wrote:

Ship (10 PP): You own a maritime vessel that you use

for trade, transport, or military purposes. This ship
comes complete with a crew and earns enough money
through normal operation to be self-sustaining, but isn’t
necessarily profitable on its own. Whenever you require
passage at sea, you may choose to take your vessel instead
of an unfamiliar ship hired by the Society to deploy you and
your party. You gain a +2 circumstance bonus on Profession
(sailor) checks and it becomes a class skill for you. You may
use Profession (sailor) checks to make Day Job rolls.

For the purposes of Day Job rolls, do these stack? Does an Andoran player's personal ship count as an Andoran vessel?

Personally, I think it would, but there has been some question as to whether the wording in Gray Corsair is intended to mean Andoran government/military vessel, not just a personal ship flying the Andoran flag.

Personally, in absence of evidence to the contrary, I would probably allow it to stack, as when else in PFS is a player going to be serving on an Andoren vessel?

They're not the same type and they're permanent, not limited time or specific use bonuses, so I don't see any reason for them to not stack.

And really, if the character sank 13 PP (Eagle Knight, Gray Corsair, Ship,) into it, why not let them sail their ship as an Andoran privateer freeing slaves and netting a few extra GP for their efforts? They're at least 7th level for the 40 fame, so even maxing out day job rolls aren't going to make a noticeable effect on their wealth.

To look at it another way, the absolute most those 5 points will be worth is 50 gold a scenario if they bump your day job roll up from 35 to 40, how much of a deal is that to a 7th level character? If you count 2 PP as 750GP and 1 as 150GP, it would take them 93 sessions to make up the 4,650GP they gave up by spending the prestige on fluff. It's a negative value investment.

I'd allow it at my tables. Pretty cool backstory.
