Skills seems pointless. We have spent 10+ years without this, with an open sea and no one has been bothered by this. The skill itself, just seems like a waist of time, there is no point of it.
Look when summoning was added, ya it made pking and pvming a lot easier, but it wasnt an easy kill... It took multiple hours getting charms, and countless amounts of money to get it up. IT was a very LONG and EXPENSIVE skill that was rewarding. Sailing just seems very worthless and a waist of time. Pointless.

THis wasnt polled, and according to the feedback im seeing, if this is implemented everyone is going to leave. People play OSRS cause they have the say, that was the point of it. The reason we all play this game is because we pick what is added, and now you are taking this away from us? Same thing with the pre eoc, the beta was added and no one liked it, and look what happened when it was implemented, same effect here.

I personally feel that actually releasing an update that was once a joke for April 1st is kind of a joke in the first place. I personally don't like the idea of this being a skill whatsoever. I'd much rather a skill that brings something new to the table rather than rehashing what I feel is construction 2.0

Maybe if you read other comments at the beginning of the page from Mod Mat K, you will see that it will be polled. Stop Crying.

Void and delete please -Eventually OSRS will run it's course and face the same demise of RS3 cause Jagex tries to fix things that aren't broken. Enjoy OSRS while it lasts. It's all you can do.

I think this would be better in a minigame format, the idea that you have to use other skills like crafting and smithing is cool, but for being forced to have a high crafting/smithing level to train this skill is going to drive some lower level players away. Also if it was a minigame you could maybe get higher level ships/gear from collecting points or something from sailing/finding new lands etc. This is an idea that could work but I think it would be more widely accepted as a minigame rather than a skill by veterans and new players alike.
