Crew. A ship needs a crew of skilled hirelings to function. As per the Player’s Handbook, one skilled hireling costs at least 2 gp per day.
Ship Repair. Repairs to a damaged ship can be made while the vessel is berthed. Repairing 1 hit point of damage requires 1 day and costs 20 gp for materials and labor.
Not a perfect mesh with the different ship rules set in GoS, but very close.

Thanks.
Found it. It wasn't in GoS, it was in DMG.

Ghost does have rules for repairs at sea too.
