There is another thing that I would like the developers to do, I would like the docks to allow the transport of the fishing boats from one to another and also to recycle them receiving half of the wood that we spend on them.
By being able to transport them from one dock to another, we can save them from an attack or relocate them from one side of the map to another, I think this is a good option considering that they cost population.
In addition, when there are only food sources, it allows us to recover part of the investment in the fishing vessels in the long term.
By being only half the cost we prevent other players from abusing this mechanic and to prevent the relocation ability from being abused we can make it work similar to Malta Commanderies.
I think that this way going to sea would be more fun. 
PS: I also wish the settlers could fish close to the shore.
