To reduce the amount of ships on the map, ships should be made harder to make. Eitther add nails, cloth and such to the boat, to make it harder. Who ever in their life went up to two logs on the ground with about 60 boards in their pocket and started to grab the logs until a boat appeared? Noone. There should be a gani to make the boat, like there is for everything else (houses, items, crushing rocks, etc.) as well as other materials needed to make it. This would increase building time and then boats would become more valuable, and then work could be done on ownership of boats.
