Hate pulling up to one of the large shore rocks jutting out during a storm to repair my longship, renew rested, or whatever else i needed a pit stop for only for my longship to get slapped into rocks i didn't even realize existed because i couldnt see them at night. I like to go ahead and prepare some simple docks at least for the longship to use, but use the longship mostly for large transport trips like ore runs and the karve for actually exploring the map.

IMO, the second worse aspect of the karve (behind the lack of storage) is that it has half the HP of the longship. If you're in a situation where you're having to bring your longship in for repairs, you would have been swimming long before if you were in a karve.

The longship may look like and sound like it's getting severely damaged by rocks, but, if you look at the health of the ship after, you'll see that it's hardly taken any damage.
