Inhabitants of the water world know one thing for sure: your boat is your home, craft shop and war fortress which are always with you. Meaning, there is no simple answer to the question “which boat is the best?” It must fit your personal needs and preferences and help to solve your tasks. You are the captain - you decide what your boat is.
Age of Water gives you the ability to enjoy a broad choice of options while constructing and upgrading your boat and its components tailoring them to your needs.

From the hull plating where selecting materials based on their weight and strength affects speed and durability, to selecting the exact deck layout. Where will the steering column be? How is the captain or gunner protected from the occasional bullet? How many pumps will give you needed safety? What cover can your crew use while under fire? Should you raise the gun position to shoot above the waves or is it better to keep a low profile? What guns and other weaponry can you use in general… Oh, and how can you provide enough power for all of it! You have a pretty infinite number of choices.
While discovering and obtaining new equipment and extracting artifacts from the old civilization, you can upgrade and reconfigure your ship anytime you like to adjust it to your current crew and missions. Who said that half of a school bus is junk? It can make a great and safe wheelhouse!
Any suitable object from your inventory can be located on the ship’s structure using the possible 14 mounting points using the placement grid, sometimes even one object over another to create a superstructure!

Also, you can collect and recycle different wreckage and trash to stockpile useful materials for repair works and additional protection elements to the construction.
Last but not least, don't forget how it looks! The ocean likes tidiness and your boat is like a woman - it needs care and a nice look! Assemble a beautiful and practical vessel, and it will help carry you through all the adventure throws at you!
