This one comes from Nexus Mods userEnneal(as spotted byDSO Gaming), and is for those who like a little sea travel with their (specifically Special Edition of)Skyrim. The “Functional Ships” download essentially adds point-to-point travel between the game’s ports via the use of ships.

As for features, here’s what Enneal’s offering comes with:
Maybe one day I’ll stop talking aboutSkyrimmods. Today is clearly not that day. Onwards we go!
