Javeed Jawgrasp's Captaincy
Under the captaincy of Javeed Jawgrasp's the Mist served as a sister ship to the Squall-Eater.

While the crew was doing business with Marius LePual they were interrupted by the Mighty Nein that had followed Marius LePual to the docks in Nicodranas. They had attempted to eavesdrop on the discussion between Marius and the crew but failed and caused alarm. In the ensuing fight, the Mighty Nein killed most of the crew, with Yasha killing the captain. The only surviving members were the ships carpenter, Gallan Westman and Marius LePual. The ship got commandeered by Captain Tusktooth and his crew.

Fjord's Captaincy
The first action on the mist taken by Captain Tusktooth was to turn the rudder of the ship towards open ocean to make it out of Nicodranas’s harbor relative safety. They tied Marius LePual to the mast and headed below deck to take stock of their new ship.

They found Gallan Westman below deck attempting to burn the records of The Mist 's dealings and burning partway through a map to Avantika island. When they found out he was the ship's carpenter, they convince him to join them and Nott appointed him first mate. They renamed the ship The Mistake, and it was painted on the stern by Jester Lavorre. The Mighty Nein took the ship back to Nicodranas, to stocked up with one month's worth of supplies and to hire a crew, that included Orly Skiffback as navigator.

The Mistake set sail towards the Inkclaw Reef. On the first night at sea, the ship was attacked by harpies. The Mighty Nein defeated them before they could do serious damage to the sails or carried off any of the crew.

On the morning of the third day, The Mistake reached the Inkclaw Reef. Fjord and Orly navigated through the reef, but the ship took hull damage. The ship began to take on water. Fjord closed the hole from the outside using the mattress from the captain's quarters while Gallan patched the hole with pieces of pulled apart barrels. The leak slowed to a manageable level, but could not be fully repaired until the ship was docked somewhere. Through the casting of Leomund's Tiny Hut, Caleb’s magical sphere completely stopped the water from entering the ship as long as Caleb stayed inside the sphere.

Now through the reef, The Mistake headed towards Urukaxl to dock to find that another ship, the Squall Eater, was already there. It fired a warning shot at The Mistake. Fjord ordered the crew to stop as a rowboat from the other ship made its way over to The Mistake.

The Mighty Nein left Bouldergut on board of the ship with their crew and rowed to the Squall Eater to parlay with Captain Avantika.

The Mistake sailed to Darktow Isle alongside the Squall Eater.

The Plank King expelled the crew of The Mistake from The Revelry for stealing from a fellow member. As their reward for uncovering Avantika's plot against him, he did not kill them. Instead they were banished from Darktow Isle and given the Squall Eater. The entire crew moved to the Squall Eater and left immediately. The Mistake was abandoned at Darktow. After Avantika's death, the Plank King gave the Mighty Nein ownership of the Squall-Eater abandoning The Mistake in Darktow.

Trivia

 * Caleb claimed that "mist" is also the Zemnian word for "shit", and wanted to rechristen the ship as the "Shit" or the "Shittake" accordingly. In German (the real world counterpart of Zemnian) "Mist" does in fact translate to "dung" (as in "dungheap"), but is used similarly to saying "shit!!" in English if something goes wrong.
