Even with the discouragement I am still tempted to get a Hacker boat, I love the speed on that thing (or used to love, not sure how much it changed since .83)... but now that it was mentioned, the idea of an OC ship is a rather interesting one, I had a Tridente back in the day, it was not a bad ship... the problem is the general lack of Outcast activity will be somewhat depressing... though I could constantly poke Gallics, IMG, and Kusarian forces... even visit Bretonia perhaps.
The Corsair one still sounds good... and I already have a Corsair repped so I can just buy the boat and do a /renameme on it to a more Greek name to fit the Corsair lore (some independent has to try). I am not made of money though so I doubt I could do better than a CAU 3 or 4, and since the Corsair boat is all about heavy armor I am not sure how well I will fair without some really really heavy stuff mounted on it. That and I love my Titan, ah well.
I will think about it more I guess. I am still super clueless
