We need more boats not less.

I'd like to see an intricate canal system put into Norrath like the canals in England.

Custom content?!?!!?

All zone lines require the presence of a boat to activate!

Went narrow boating for my birthday. Would love to see something like this in game.

The iksar came close with their huge (broken) aquaduct outside old seb and their city canal system in new seb. There should have been a canal system passing through Swamp of No hope to the old iksar port in FV (the lock gates to descend the hill would have been the zoneline).

I want to see little people sitting in the canoe's riding like through EQ like they're on it's a small world at disneyland as they slowly make their way from freeport to qeynos through the little canoe canals.

EQ is exactly about arbitrary time sinks

It was cute for a bit but at this point, can we just translocate from Oasis to OT and FP to OOT/BB etc?
no

I'm pretty sure this is a joke, nevertheless, I don't hate this idea.

Weren't there two boats on live? Mirroring the routes so they'd be twice as fast? It's probably faster for a level 10 player to kill bandits and make 30 plat for a port than to wait for the boat, which makes them fundamentally broken.

They're just sort of there and ignored while everyone ports around. Which is fine, even having to ask a dial for a port turns transportation into a social emergent mmo interaction which doesn't exist with pok books.

I like the boats! Every so often I have to go to TD or OOT and they help the world feel big and daunting.
