Some ships are available in several types.
Separate Ships
These are produced from their own complete recipes.
| Courier | A faster version, which is easier to handle as well, reduced number of guns and armor | |
| Stripped | A low-level version of a larger ship for traders, reduced number of guns | |
| Trader's | An upgraded version with increased speed, heavier armor and increased cargo capacity, occasionally at the expense of firepower |
Upgrade Ships
These are produced by combining an existing ship deed with additional shipwright materials.
| Heavy | An upgraded version with heavier armor and more firepower | |
| Mastercraft | The most powerful version in terms of armor and firepower | |
| Sleek | A faster verion with more armor |
Non-producable Ships
These ships are obtained either by losing all of your ships or by purchasing from the civilian ship trader. These cannot be produced by any recipe.
| Civilian | These ships only have 1 durability point and are weaker and slower than ships made by players. |
| Fallback | These ships have the same speed as player-made ships, but weaker armor and guns and a smaller crew. |
