Small Boats

[Neo (DayZ) 11]

So I was up north on the coast a couple of days ago and I found a bunch of small boats. I got really excited because I happened to have a full jerrycan on me. I filled up a boat only to realize that the boats spawn really really close to shore, in fact, it was almost stuck on the shore. I propose that the distance that they spawn from shore should be increased a little bit.

Also, I finally managed to get one unstuck only to realize that the small boats have a max speed of around 12kph. I think that should be upped if anyone is even going to consider using them. I have a boat not to different than that and it can chug along at around 30mph. If people are going to go through the effort of actually filling those things up, you might want to make it worth their time. Thank you.

Really? I could have sworn they went faster than that in ArmA...maybe that was just the Marines CRRC, this is the Russian Army PBX which I have never used. Or do you mean the civillian pleasure boat thing?

Anyway, yes. And I'd like to see the option of strapping a backpack onto it in place of one passenger, so we could have SOME storage space.
