Personally, I have close to zero interest in boats, however, I will take up the position of advocate for them.
Exiled Lands
Den said in a stream that he’d always been told the Exiled Lands could not be expanded because of the dungeons physically existing outside the current borders, but when he inspected the map, he found that wasn’t completely true and there was still space available out there that could safely be expanded into.
I am not sure of the exact positions of each of the dungeons, but I think the space just north of the jungle is open for a ways before it reaches the Well of Skelos. I believe south of the jungle contains the Palace of the Witch Queen, so that might be more limiting.
The rivers could be deepened and the shoreline extended up around the north side of the jungle. Water access there could connect the east highlands and/or tundra to the jungle by boat.
Isle of Siptah
Obviously plenty of water here, with the Maelstrom being the issue. But honestly, I’d consider it more of a feature than an problem that the storm would periodically interfere with boat use.
When the storm starts to pick up, you have a short while to take down your sails and drop anchor before it starts taking damage and sinks.
The barely-implemented megalodons could prevent small boats from trying to sail away when the tower is calm.
New Map
I’m probably even less interested in a new map than boats, but a map of numerous scattered islands that relied heavily on boats would be interesting (Sea of Thieves, Zelda: Wind Waker).
