I lived by the swamp once, made a harbor even walled it in, but my ships would sink, found out the skeletons and Drungar archers would just walk on the sea floor and shoot my boats necks a boats worst enemy...
Yeah I can see the argument that enemies should attack boats, but when their arrows magically just work fine underwater without being slowed down by the water that doesn't seem fair that they can walk under the water and shoot your boat especially when you can't defend the boat by shooting back at underwater enemies because when you try to shoot down over the side of the boat you just shoot AT your boat and damage it more. The game has no way for the player to indicate "I am trying to lean out and shoot over the edge." Once the enemy is directly under your boat they can't be touched because of the asymetrical application of the laws of physics (water affects your shots but not theirs).
