Karves are medium boats with a medium sailing speed, a small amount of storage and good maneuverability.
They travel 3.9–7.0 m/s with full sails, 2.8–4.8 m/s with half sails and 3.14 m/s when paddling.
Specs[]
500 HP
10m long x 3m wide x 8m air draft (height from waterline).
2 seats plus pilot (currently any number of people can hold fast)
4 storage slots (cargo weight doesn't seem to affect handling or speed)
Speeds
Full sails:
100% wind: 7.0 m/s, high risk of capsizing
50% wind: 5.7 m/s
5% wind: 3.9 m/s
Half sails:
100% wind: 4.8 m/s
50% wind: 4.1 m/s
5% wind: 2.8 m/s
Paddling: 3.14 m/s
20 m turning radius at top speed with full sail
Notes[]
The Karve cannot be deconstructed with a hammer, but its resources drop when it is destroyed and can be recovered if a player is standing in range to pick them up before they sink.
The Karve can outrun a Serpent with the wind directly behind it during a thunderstorm; eventually, the serpent will give up the chase.
