And on top of that, not make sailing a skill, the map reveal range hilariously short even in wide open oceans, not having much to do other than sometimes stopping to fish or collect chitin, and really only one threat in the ocean for 95% of the game who stops being a real threat once you're beyond wood/flint arrows (the actual threat being your fellow players shooting the boat's wonky collision)

I fully expect them to go back and rework sailing but right now its not a great time.
