Hmmm... well if she's a former sailor, perhaps her sailing experience is not
limited to the water. If she's been a crewman on a ship like Severian was on
to retrieve the New Sun.....

You are right more questions that answers... so far.

Well, as I glance back over UTNS, it seems unlikely
that Thais could be Severian's kid by Dorcas.  The
last he saw of her was a decade or so before leaving
to get the New Sun, and he returns several more
decades latter, if poor shriveled Valaria is any
indication.  Thais is in Severian's estimation "fairly
young...

She does seem to know her way around a boat, being a
"sensible woman...bailing downwind
More questions than answers I'm afraid.
