Oh yeah, something like a canoe or rowboat (IMO) is light enough to be
carried (not easily) so it would be fairly easy to transport overland.

I would think rowing acorss an ocean would not be a good idea. Nor do I thknk
it is realistic or possible. prehaps a small sail boat or something along
those lines.
Like the u.ss minow.

What the hell does realistic have to do with anything? Did you completely
miss the point of Nazrix's reply? I really dont think its realistic that i
have a magical sheath that makes a sword that takes the souls of things i kill
to make it stronger. It's a fucking game! a game! not realistic, a game game
game game.

Maybe realistic wasn't the right word. I understand it is a game. I am just
saying that unless they have significant strenght would someone be able to row
acorss an entrie ocean. even two people. wath was wrong with a small sail boat
instead.

Sailboats already exist. Build or buy one!

You obviously haven't played with ships much. Unless something changed that I
didn't hear about, the smaller boats can't go on oceans anyway -- on
swamps/rivers/lakes.

Biga, please stop being like Blacksmith and bringing some obscure realism
here. If it makes you happy we can call it "a magic rowboat" then it's "real"
since the "magic" makes it work when "normal rowboat" would not, does that
lore help you sleep at night?

Have you ever seen minotaurs and spellcasting vampires irl? I didn't think so.
I think 'realism' is being carried a bit too far in this game :)

actually lifting a kayak or canoe is not a big deal, you just need to be a
healthy man
One that does not spent whole life siting an pressing buttons. It's a generic
human,
could be even woman, what to tell about twice as bigger and 5 times as stonger
booned
as hell creature.

Who lifts a canoe full of shit? You have crap in a backpack, then lift
the canoe *empty* to carry it. And yes, I have done that, had to portage
some rapids that I really didnt want to tackle, wasn't all that bad.
