    Hope this is the right place:
    I suggest to use different placeholder boats for different connections:
    Galleons for NPC City connections - possibly with different sail colours if there are multiple destinations available.
    Small sailing boats for POT on islands.
    Skiffs / rowing boats for intra-city connections.

    Currently, we use rowboats are used for short distance travel (teleport within a scene) and ships with sails for long-distance to travel (teleport to another scene). If you're in the overworld, we add galleons into the mix, which connect with other continenta. We don't have many sailing boat styles available, which is why we started coloring the sails to differentiate between story-based targets and non-story (e.g. POTs, PRTs). However, I like your ideas. It's unlikely that we'll get additional boats for teleporters, but I'll certainly keep these things in mind if we do.
