We always need a newer, bigger, faster, better boat, right? Well, maybe not bigger, or even better, depending on the circumstances. The boat I have in mind is a kayak, a watertight leather skin streched over a wooden frame. It only has only one seat, and has a rounded shape so that nothing (namely seats) can be attached to it, and due to its thin skin, it is very vounerable to attack. The dimensions would be 3 wide, 2 tall, and 10 long. The waterline would be at 4/5 studs. It would have one health point, so even a knife or arrow could destroy its body, causing its seat to sink (similar to any boat with only a seat left). On the other hand, It has 50 walkspeed, 10 more than the catamaran, and cannot be burned. Thats right, it cannot be burned, as dragburning would be an even bigger problem for it than other boats, where you have some time to react to a fire. It requires 2 planks and 2 tanned bento hides to make, with a 5 shipbuilding, 4 crafting, and 4 carpentry skill to boot. That means that is harder to build than a catamaran, but easier to build than a merchant frigate. It would be an exelent boat for nomads or solo raiders, because by the time you're there, it's to late, and if anyone tries to steal it, it can be destroyed easily and replaced for cheap. Because this boat favors nomads and requires rare materials to make, there is also a more tribal option that you could go for. Now whenever a boat is built with more than one original seat, it goes faster by 5 walkspeed for every person sitting in a seat that came with the boat. That way, a large enough tribe could match even the fastest nomad.
