i like this idea it's interesting and adds something new would be nice if you could go to more exotic places and actually sail your boat to gain exp.

looking forward to this.

Also for PVP elements you could have ship boarding and ship duels or fight on a wildy island or something.

also make the planks unique to sailing and only gain a small % of exp while sailing your boat gets you more.

however I think jagex should focus on curb stomping bots updating existing skills getting rid of bugs etc.

also I think the skill should be implemented in a fun way and have resources unique to that skill.

but it's nice nonetheless.
catz shall rise!

It's not a bad idea - it really isn't!
But, I mean...

The biggest charms, and strengths of OldSchool RuneScape both is (and was), how exclusively quick the player could immerse themselves in the gameplay.

Adding a new (and, compared to other OSRS skills, much more complicated & dynamic) skill to the game will complexify the game's structure and make it more dynamic.

This may, or may not , give new players a sortof 'alienated' feel from the game, making them feel like they cannot grasp the entirety of what there is to do in the RuneScape, at once, or immediately. And that could be a potential problem.

I love the idea. Sounds like a lot of fun, but the plank issue is the only thing I'm not sure about. You shouldn't have any of the construction planks used in sailing. You'd just be making an already ridiculously expensive skill more expensive. You should implement new planks altogether for sailing. Either obtainable via the sawmill for a cash sink or use normal - magic logs to make normal - magic planks used only in sailing. Both to me are perfectly fine and beneficial alternatives.
