Pirates would worship this and many others i imagine would benefit from this.
Pirates done a lot more then just sink ships and blockade islands as they do on graal. They were treasure hunters and searched the sea far and wide for a chest of gold.
Well why not add this into the game?
Here is my idea, pillaging!

You can craft a grappling device which is basically mjade up of 1 rope
and 1 iron claw and once you have successfully crafted
this item you board a ship.
When equipping this item a new button appears only for
the person who has the device equipped.
When the button is pressed your character drops the rope, then after a few seconds reels it back up.

You can haul up treasure chests lying on the ocean floor.
Once you have got the chest you get a message
"You have found treasure"

The treasure however is not put onto your character.
To gain your treasure you must park your ship into your kingdom castle where it is divided equally with all players on your ship.

The treasure can consist of gold coins, silver, platinum and gems such as diamonds, rubys sapphires and emeralds.

the booty is split equally per person.

HOWEVER!!!

If you do not make it to your castle.. i.e sunk then the booty is transferred to the ship that sunk you!

To see how much booty is stored in your ship type /shipcargo
and a list of what you have stored there is shown.

This is a fun way to collect your recipes for alchemy or just general cash to purchase items on main or restock your player shop.
And its fun too.
Ship battling would have more of a purpose than just sinking a ship!
So you can profit from your battles.

Players of kingdoms could organise pillaging which helps all members on that ship get diamonds ect
And if you don't want to split booty then solo sail!
Kingdoms could effectively become quite wealthy during war aswell.

Thats just what was on my mind in anyways hehe.
