I remember when i first started and i didn't know a lot about the server i wanted boats to be safe too, but i don't anymore.

Now i don't think changing them is necessary; it's only a 50board requirement, and its not like losing one boat is the -end of the world-. A safe boat would mean you could easily block up stuff with boats, and it would also nullify the use of kingdom shipyards.

However, a nice system to make ships in the kingdom's shipyard good, would be that only boats with less than 90% health can be boarded by non-creators if the ladder is up (the creator can lower and raise the ladder even when off the boat).
