You do this by placing a letter or a short message in a watertight tube (can drums, glass bottles, plastic bottles or containers specifically) and washed away into the sea or ocean. Usually the message is not addressed to a specific address, because it is that it can reach any region depends on ocean currents. Therefore, the use of a message in a bottle is usually done in an emergency such as a message for help that made the ship sank, the ship is damaged, or the people who were stranded on a desert island.

The message contains information critical intelligence about enemy positions and state waters. But because fishermen often find a bottle and opened the message, the message was leaked intelligence.

Queen Elizabeth I are outraged that intelligence is often opened and eventually became public, then set specific rules that the message in the bottle belongs to the British Navy and the British chaplain should not be opened at random, except by special official royal opening message "Uncorker of Ocean Bottles". Violation of this order is punishable by death.
