Any suggestions on what I can do to show boats for landing parties? The ships are about an inch long.

For ships boats i would suggest using a half ship sized base and glue on 2 or 3 small boat shapes cut out of card suitably painted (perhaps a light brown)

You lot are giving me a lot to live up to when we road test these.

A "Whale Road" test perhaps?

Or does that require Snekke, Skeid and Drakkar? :)

Considered that, but opted for "whaleway" instead.
