more than 2k ship salvaged:D soon there wont be any shipwrights at seabottom:)

Its nice the ocean floor is finally getting cleaned up. and even better, there are now more ships sailing the ocean then sunk at the bottom. For as long as I could remember it was the other way. Maybe we can clear up the ocean before 2018. I certainly intend to keep cleaning up.

[Mugiwara]

if im not wrong 57kish sailing mroe than 61k at the seabottom now balance changed as you said. its a good recycle example:)

[Meliva]

I made a note when the function was added of how many ships were at the bottom,
on 12/29/2016 at about 5 Pm there were 61,439 shipwrecks. now there are 58,859. so in 3 days there has been nearly 3K ships salvaged. so at this rate we could probably get it cleaned up by march. but I expect it will die down sooner or later. its popular now due to being a new feature, but its possible people will lose interest. but back to the game, I recently got a trade galleon number 9XXX. not low enough to win, or as good as my 3XXX one, but still pretty low.

I've found a few interesting ship names so far...
f*** you (howker)
#YOLO (howker)
The Amethyst Skunk (howker)
BORG_1 (sloop)
Grandpa Lemon (Large Merchantman)

I also found 2 ships at level 2. How does that happen?

[Admiral Nelson]

So, by looking at the quartermaster it has become apparent that 3,000 ships has indeed been bought up from the bottom.

We will assume this will continue, ( Not likely, but we will assume ) which means from looking at Melivas post, in March there will be no Shipwrecks left.

What we are looking at here, when it comes to Shipwrecks is years of Plundering. I remember, there use to be more thus I will not say - Since Pirates Glory has opened. But I personally think this feature should not be over-done.

I believe, once it reaches less then 10,000 ships left a 'cap' should be put on fishing where no more then 10 fleets can be put out to 'hunt' from one player. Perhaps, the ability to 'buy' spaces like you can in Ship Market. Especially with those with a large amount of fleets cough cough Da Vinci and Dungeness as I have noticed - There ship count increased by 200+ within the space of an hour, either they have 6000 turns or they are using this feature.

Of course this is if, all players continue to Ship-Wreck hunt.

I found ship #5, or so the event told me... I immediately started spending the 10mil bounty on fresh straw and fittings for the stables... then I realized, it was the damn ships name, not its number... oh well... it felt nice for a short while...
