Yeah but if you plan mass-theft from surrounding towns, it's less easy to get away. :P

(plus they can combat you with their own army of kayaks)

Then I'll get a dugout canoe and live in the middle of the lake until they forget about me. ^_~ lol Who says I'm planning mass theft anyway?

The docking behaviour is yet to be changed. Rafts will be able to dock to it and probably other kayaks, too. It does indeed come with a lock, but so does the raft (which can travel the seas, too, by the way and is not that expensive either).

The reason behind this implementation is not to give newspawns a quick start or getting rid of old bones, but to give people an option to build a boat that doesn't depend on wood. There are several islands and regions in the game world that don't have access to wood and those people are pretty much screwed until an outsider lands with a boat.
Pretty in pink.

The Bone fur scraper has been renamed to Bone hide scraper. I think (not sure yet) that old Hide scrapers now do the same job.

I'm sure you'll get used to it. I think it's good for quickly checking when an abandoned town was last active if there are lots of projects about.

I thought that, too. I can see how it would be useful will just take some getting used to.
