After reading this over, I think my vote for sailing as a skill would be no.
I feel sailing would be better as a big update to construction more than a skill and I hope you would consider polling this as a construction update if it fails as a skill.
I also enjoy the idea of gemstone dragons and think they would be fun!
Some ideas if made for a construction update:
Construction levels for building in new ports, and building ships. It could be a way to make money off construction instead of being a HUGE money sink, and an alternate way to level construction.
The type of boat we have could determine how many different ports we could travel to, as well as which ports we could travel to.
I do hope we get a new skill. I've been playing Runescape since the days of 'pixilated line weapons, fatigue, and no elbows' classic and I usually enjoy most of the updates that come out. I just don't think sailing is the way to go for a new skill.
