Hi! Saw on the SeafaringImplementation wiki page that a good way of making rowboats for water ways hasn't been decided on yet. How about a boatyard producing rowboats, that is upgradeable to a shipyard?

I rather like this idea - a lot of the buildings in Widelands allow for upgrades to further their output and this sounds like a relevant addition. The builder could also use the rowboat construction gain the experience required to make the larger ships. WARNING: New-style view packet not found.

I really like that idea as well :)! Anyone up for writing a feature request on launchpad ?

Would that be a wishlist bug or a blueprint in launchpad speak?

both possible, but I think a bug report would be enough, as the idea is quite straight and there is not a lot to explain.

Could rowboats also be used to enhance a Fisher's Hut (once Fisherman has achieved Master Fisherman status) to a Fisher's Dock, which has a greater work area and greater production rate of fish?

We need to be careful about feature creep. The food producers (fisher, hunter, piggery) work well as they are in my opinion and a building shouldn't have an upgrade for the sake of it. The game (arguably) will need rowboats at some point, so it makes sense to consider a building with upgrades to supply both those and the ships. WARNING: New-style view packet not found.
