Loading rowboats onto larger ships

Recommended Posts

If rowboats can be loaded onto a larger ship, perhaps 1 on a Corb, 2 on a Cog, 3 on a Caravel. Then we can park our ships off-shore, unload a boat, and row to shore! This would make it easier to access shallow areas with large ships.


Would be fun from a role-play perspective as well. Could even make PVP more interesting when a Caravel "mother-ship" pulls up and sends out a landing party just like in the pirate movies  :ph34r:

I like the idea, very practical, derived from a real use... +1

+1 even wen I prefer the rowing/sailboat attached by a rope and dragged behind.

+1. Defiantly something that is doable. The code is present to load things in.

Seriously, a no brainer. 


Even if they need to be on a ship transporter first, they should be loadable. 


 


Cogs should be changed to fit wagons also, like other ships (smaller than it).

I am sure this has been suggested before.

Great idea would work well with the fishing thread for whaling :) +1

Can't load a wagon into a rowboat or sailboat..  What other ships are smaller than a cog? it's the smallest cargo ship out there.  29 large crates in the hold, A wagon requires 39 space to fit.

I would like this, And a cargo ship to haul animals, lots of crates, and lots of rowboats.

Even being able to hitch smaller boats to ships would be great - and that's what actual sailing boats did in calm weather, to clear deck space.

+1  If a large cart can fit in the ship, a row boat should fit too.

I don't think the wagon should be loadable on a sailboat or smaller.. That would be wogic. 

I'm aware of the data on the capacity chart. I don't understand using the 'status quo' as a platform for proving an argument on what '[c/sh]ould be'.

If a Corbita (visually much smaller than a Cog) can fit a Wagon then a Cog should be able to also. The Cog is crippled without a trade-off benefit.

Great idea. I always thought this should be the case and I should have suggested this some time ago, but someone more action prone beat me to it!

When boats were first introduced we were able to drag out sailboats behind us.  It was awesome.
