Dear Santa Zulg, I've been good this year. Please send me a boats overhaul.

Something like -
Giving boats different size according to lvl and weight. A low lvl boat could only fit one person but still be heavy. Higher lvl boats would be lighter, but still fit one person, or heavy and able to accommodate a few people or pets following you without a boat of their own.

Questy boats that could grant you skills (like exotic weapons or periapts) on the water. I.E. - A fishing boat with fishing skill(forage), a steel-prowed brig with a ramming skill(bash?charge?capsize?), I'm not exactly sure how the CF staff views cannons on ships.

Large boats that you have to board, like the ones sailing on the open seas. Make this one come and my heart will grow three sizes, but I'm not going to pretend to know how any of this works. Any boat changes would make me a happy CF'er.
