Hm. I cannot find a suitable trait to bring me up. My only choices are:
State Controlled: Your market is controlled by your ruler, every business is state owned and all works are employed by the state, you are less vulnerable to crashes in the market however with the lack of competition your country advances more slowly and the economy rises more slowly. +1
Landlubbers: Your sailors don't exactly train on a boat, boarding and marine forces perform slightly worse due to the moving deck. +1
Both of which make no sense. I may just have to take landlubbers…
How many points do you get for no army?

The point system here is trying to prevent people from being good at everything.

So, you could chose Landlubbers or State Controlled.  However, that would put you at 10 traits.  While 10 traits are legal, more than 8 or 9 traits will give you a less stability (although the 'What is Gunpowder' trait is supposed to give you better stability).

Or you could remove the "Ships of Line" or "Natural Great Men" (this would allow you to get rid of "Never been out of the village"), or you could get rid of "Kings of the Sea".  Any of these options will give you the correct amount of points.

Going back to my first point (points prevent people from being great at everything), since it looks like you want to be great at the sea and at trade, you might want to get rid of "Natural Great Men".
