I beg to differ. The rules in the Cheat! info post regarding enhancers is:

Anything not on that list is not a legal play. Don't ask, because the answer will be, "No."

* With the Cheat! card, you can use a Ship Enhancer that is an Item on a Steed, a Hireling, or another Item. The same goes with Steed Enhancers and Hireling Enhancers that are Items. This means that you could have a Musket with a Poop Deck, or a Gnome Hireling with Press On Wings, or, if you're blending, a Gnome Hireling with a Poop Deck and Press On Wings. Of course, only if you're using a Cheat! card along with each Enhancer.
This seems to be very carefully worded to show you can use Enhancers which are Items to enhance things other than what they are meant to enhance, but it never mentions allowing you to use Enhancers on their own without attaching them to anything. Given that it also includes the text that anything not on the list is illegal, it directly contradicts that answer in the FAQ.
