guys how about we some how get to geter and trun this into a mod since mojane is not likely going to add it how about that like 50 people trun this into a mod the we send a link to jebs email. and hope he thinks about adding it, yes i know it sounds stupid but it could work right?

Gosh! Amazing! Just amazing! I REALLY want this one, but i dont think it should be added on Vanilla... (Wait, dont hate me yet) Because it's not much the face of Vanilla... Now, for a mod, this is more than perfect! The huge useless Oceans are now good for something! Even better, what about those ships spawning naturally in Oceans? With Skeletons and Zombies ready to make a hole in your ship? (And they could hide inside the ship in the day, they dont like sun right?) Then you could damage them and board the ship, kill everyone, loot the place, and if you want, you can take it for you! How much times i have to say Amazing? Also, what about spawning ship with no monsters inside, but Villagers? And then you could trade things without ever finding a village! (Which is not so easy) or you could hire them to fill cannons and such! By a price of their so loved Emeralds! And you could also add a decoration statue in the front of the ship, like a Mermaid statue or even a Skeleton? I can see myself shooting in the enemy ship and then rushing towards it to board and plunder! That would give Minecraft a REALLY different taste!!!
Dont let this thread die!!! Never!!!
Very interesting! Only problem: with the larger ships you run out of room.
Oceans need to be bigger.
MUCH bigger.
Just off the top of my head I think in large biomes oceans are 2 or 3 thousand blocks across? Would be nice to have land enclosed by water instead of water enclosed by land though.
I think this would do wonderfully as a mod, not so much in vanilla. I think you should go post this over in Mod Suggestions and see how the people over there react to the idea.

if the colors in my posts don't make sense don't worry about it
I've been wanting to cross the ocean on the Island map I'm on to see if I can find any land, and no measly Row Boat can do it. I'd need a Carrack, maybe even a Galleon to be able to make it, since due from my Third exploration in the ocean, I've discovered it's MUCH bigger than I've expected.

Well I've 2 thing's I'd like to say here man First You NEED to find a Modder or a team that wants to do this hell IF i were a Programmer I'd be after you to work in it.
Second You need to make better looking ship moddles IF this wre or is going to be a mod Luckily I'm an old hat at the Zepplin mod and I Specialized in makeing Zepplins that are basickly ships with gass bags conected to them as such I could do the modles up in minecraft then you could get the sizes right though the Skiff looked good the way you did it from Cog to Gallion I'd re-do for ya. also considder branching out your propulsion systems like haveing a primary and secondairy with that in place gas bags and Engine driven propellors could be added in to make Air ships for sky Pirates like me.
and my final word Diferent types of Cannon would be cool the ship cannon you have looks awsome but its small bore a hole puncher now haveing a top deck mounted Mortar Cannon (Balkon's weapon mod) then you can fire the BIG Damage thuogh you'd need to limit the number of those to 6 for a Galloion (3 to a side) and only 2 for a Caracak then a Grappling hook would also be cool to fire. Also instead of placeing some items on the ship manualy like you described you could equip the ship from the shipwrite from the dock in a sort of after editing like a Galion has 2 Gun decks each with 6 Cannons a side plus 3 top deck cannons haveing a Equipment tab to view all of your 30 of your Cannon slots, then special equipment like the grapleing hooks then cargo capacity now I made a Galion that was huge its hold was 10 block wide allowing for 6 rows of large chests up the legth and 4 rows going across the 10 leaveing 2 3 block wide paths threw the cargo deck now this is a massive 48 single chests given my idea on equiping slots you could also sack one or both of your gun decks to duble or tripple your cargo capacity.
but this is enough man I hope you read my idea about your idea and hope you find some guys to help you with the modding and remember if you like I can builds the boats >:3
LOVE this idea, will you be able to choose where to place cannons on the ship? I have an idea for a rare ship to be found in dungeons, the Clipper ship. It has a main deck, a crows nest, a captains quarters and a hold, so a main level and a bottom level. It is the fastest ship, although it is slower when it has iron armor on.

If Mojang decides to take this up, I'm sure they'll have their own take on the ships. And modders likewise. Thank you for your offer, though
Having entirely different cannons would be stepping out of the patterns of Minecraft a bit. Perhaps cannons built with different materials would have small changes in function, e.g different cooldown periods.

The cannons would have their own cannon lots that you can also put a normal block in if you don't have a cannon, but you can't put a cannon in a non-cannon lot.
Crows' nests are already in the idea as craftable ship components. Having speed change with different armors is interesting, though. I didn't think of that.

I agree, but it is not fitting into Minecraft
