== Description ==
Ship building consists of making ships and the parts needed to construct them.

Ship building is a sub-skill of [[carpentry]].

== Items ==

See also ''[[:Category:Ship building items]]''

See also [[ship]] for information about using ships. All ships are started by using a [[keel section]] on a [[keel section]].

* [[Small raft]] (cannot be boarded but can be dragged)
* [[Rowing boat]]
* [[Small sailing boat]]
* [[Corbita]]
* [[Cog]]
* [[Knarr]]
* [[Caravel]]

=== Ownership ===

* The last person to pick up and drop a boat while under construction will be marked as the owner of that boat upon completion.
* Boats can be managed by the owner to have various permissions, like allowing all friends to command the boat, or to transfer ownership to another player.
* Ownership can be taken from another player on the [[Wild]] server, but not on [[Freedom]].

=== Miscellaneous ===

Some ship building items are impossible to create with 0 skill, but at least [[seat]] and [[hull plank]] should be available to get the initial 1 skill.

If you're making your first ever boat it is recommended to not make the keels as the first item. You should start by making [[hull plank]], [[tenon]], [[peg]], and [[belaying pin]]. Then you make some of the more complicated pieces like [[oar]] or [[seat]], and you improve those as far as you can to get your [[ship building]] skill up. Once your skill has reached 10-15, you may create the [[keel section|keel sections]] with decent success rate.
