The only reason i ask is id like to have a massive merchant navy =)
To start with we aren't going to have boats that are larger than small boats, nothing that can survive on the ocean. After the game has been out a while and needs to expand, we'll be able to research sailing vessels in order to explore new continents, which will also bring about new tribes.

River travel will be common in the to'resk wetlands. And inner sea travel will exist also, so like the mediterrarean trade, or gulf of mexico style.
Ship Technology will eventually come to the point of open sea travel but not at the start of game.
From what we know about the current tribes, the tribe most oriented to river and sea travel are the To'resk, one of the most common jobs in To'resk society is ship building so if you wanna play with ships and boats To'resk might be a good starting tribe for you.

Not to crush dreams, but just as a reminder, ships will cost a huge amount of money and resources just as they did in ancient times. Therefore, you will probably need the backing of a state group or several wealthy families to get you started. However, if you ever do get this money please remember me, I would love to help.
