A ship is used to sail the seven seas.
Ships are made using ship building, usually started by combining two keel sections.
Most ships require some Mind logic (see Vessel Details)
Note: The small raft floats, but cannot be boarded, so does not even count as a boat.

Security
Important : Without an attached boat lock anyone can use a ship. If the ship is not moored it can be dragged or pushed away. Always lock AND moor your ships.
If either is not done on the Freedom servers, your boat may be Salvaged as per the game rules. [1]
***The person who finishes the ship becomes the owner. This was changed in Summer 2011. Before that the last person who had the unfinished ship in the inventory became the owner.
- To prevent someone from stealing or finishing your unfinished boat make sure no one but you can get access by either building it in a locked cart or a small temporary house.
Ownership can be transferred by the owner in the vehicle management window.
The owner and any person with the Manage right can manage the usage permissions through a window available via the Manage vehicle menu option.
The permissions control drive (embarking as commander), mount (embarking as a passenger), accessing the inventory hold of the ship and managing the settings. Each of these rights can be granted or denied to all friends, all villagers and everyone. The owner always has all permissions. The settings only take affect if the ship is locked however.
The owner of the ship can attach a boat lock to it to enable permissions. The lock can be removed by everyone in posession of the key but only the owner can attach it again.
To secure a ship from drifting or being dragged or pushed away it's important to moor it with a mooring anchor. A ship can be moored by the commander and any passenger but only the commander can raise the anchor.
On Freedom ships can not be lockpicked. Trying so will result in the message Stealing boats is punished with death penalty here. You decide not to.
Notes
- If you are building a ship larger than a small sailing boat inside a cart, it will become too heavy to drag. Make sure to move the cart next to water before it gets too heavy. See small cart to find out how much you can drag.
- The person to attach the last piece to an unfinished ship becomes the owner when it is finished.
- Currently there are no beneficial speed results from improving the quality of a ship.
- Ships with a quality of less than 10 cannot be commanded.
- You cannot cross a server boarder on a boat that you don't own.
However, the warning message (You may not leave the server with this boat. You need to own it or be friend with the owner.) is somewhat misleading, as it implies friends can cross borders. That is incorrect at this time - you must be the owner.

- [1] This includes the captain.
- [2] This is the amount a commander can influence the speed of a boat (in either forward or reverse) when it is otherwise un-crewed.
- [3] To calculate how many of something fit inside, divide the ship's volume by the item's volume per unit. Stacking containers, an example is small barrels in rafts, will make room for more than 100 items.
- [4] Measured above water level to the main deck.
- [5] Measured below water level to the keel.
