Buying ships to sail to your other castles

I had this idea for a while now & just got around to posting it. You know how you ride a boat to the krokosphinx & airships in MB. I think it would be an incrediblely awesome housing upgrade to be able to build docks at your castles & sail a ship to your other houses rather than equipping & porting.

This is how I would make it work.

You would still equip a castle to port to, but while at your castle, instead of equipping a different house, you would run over to a dock where your ship is parked & just sail to your next house; kind of like going to your door to travel to another world. There would be a short animation scene, like with the krokosphinx boat ride, & then it loads to the next castle you selected to go to.

The upgrade would consist of you buying a dock & a type of ship. It could be a...

GH dock with a GH longship
Krok dock with a Krok Galley
MB landing platform with an MB airship of several designs; like they have in the game already
DS drake landing platform with a drake to ride

( These are ideas that can be done with ships that are already modeled in the game as is. )

For CL, my idea would be to create a spacey looking dock with a space ship
& a Floating Island dock with a pirate ship.

Maybe for an MS theme it could be a majestic cloud to ride on like the stylized clouds you see in a MS sky.

In addition to buying a dock it would also be cool if you could decorate your ships too as a way to make them even more functional. Maybe 10 or 20 item spaces for a ship. The drake idea would have none of course because that would just be weird, but you could name your drake & get it a choice of saddles. AND of course you need to be able to allow your friends to ride the ships with you; that would give it epic awesomeness.

Most importantly a ship & dock would not take up any item spaces in your castle. It would be a free addition to your plot & allow us to place housing items on the docks as well..

On a side note it would be nice if KI would sell housing upgrades that would just increase your item count say 50 extra spaces. I want more plants around my Life House.

If any of you like this idea & would want a ship lets see if we can petition KI to make it happen. I guess we could start with replies to my post.

P.S. To the people of KI,
I know how to use the 3D Max program & would be willing to help make this idea on my free time for free. How about it? I could design a really neat CL spaceship.
