If I start a game solo in a sloop and a couple of my friends sign on, I have to leave my game and join them for a bigger ship. It would be really cool if I could scuttle my ship and choose an option to upgrade it to a bigger ship so they could join me. I frequently find myself in a sloop and having to leave to join friends on a brigantine or galleon. I then lose my active quests. With quests getting longer as you advance further in the game this feature would be awesome. It’d be really helpful with the gilded quests that take several hours to accomplish too!
Allow players to upgrade to a bigger ship
@mercformoney indeed this is a very popular request with many topics dedicated to the subject like this one Dynamic Player Loobies: Changing Ship type Mid session and is one of many great idea's proposed here and can be found in the Community Idea's Master List.
@enf0rcer thanks! Didn’t search the forum thoroughly enough I guess. I’ll check the master list before posting any further ideas and just upvote the existing ones.

NP. Also feel free to suggest some of your Topics for things that do not yet exist on the List. Many New and Old Topics are being added all the time.
This is my main "play the game" stopper. One should be able to upgrade / downgrade the ship to make friends join and leave.
2/5 attempts of doing a galeon voyage we end in crew members have to leave because of unexpected events in real life. Everytime we try to fill up by randoms, we start failing. Everytime we try to fill up by Lfg, we have been sunk before we have filled up the crew. I stop whining here and ask for changes. Those change should not lead to server overtaking, so it needs wise coding.
