I noticed you guys said you'd prefer a realistic form of travel for going over the sea. This means (based on your map expectations) that it could probably take quite a few IRL hours to cross over. Because no player wants to have to guide a ship that long, I have a solution. There are two ways you could go about this, I would recommend you use both:
Transport Ships: These are entirely run by NPCs on set routes that go to/from various ports across the world. Times and destinations are all preset, so if you miss your ship because you can't pay the boarding fee or because you were late, then you'll just have to wait for the next scheduled ship going to the route you have chosen.
Voyages: Certain places within ports will have merhants/ship owner NPCs that will rent out their ships to you (for a hefty price of 75% of the ship's worth) for decent amounts of time (say, a few in-game months, or about a week IRL). These ships are also run by NPCs, however you give the orders and act as standing captain (you tell them which directions to go or which ports to sail to). This could be used for many types of minor situations, from a merchant player transporting cargo, to shinobi escorting a prisoner or important person.
As for player owned ships, perhaps those should be left out until late game.

I don't know if that's going to be implemented because I heard from an earlier thread that there would be no means of transportation. But I like the idea and see it as a good way of transportation.
-
I don't like the idea of player owned ships at all.
This isn't going to be Pirate Life Online is it?
-
Guys, I am pretty sure Vreg said in the live conference that the players won't be able to own a ship or to control it. It will be something like in WoW just that there won't be any loading screen, you will have to wait.

Okay, so just scrath the Voyages option then. I'm game for regular Transports (but will there be chances of pirate attacks? Could be interesting...).

I don't think there were pirates in feudal Japan.

Pirates Life Online cool...

I Think that Vreg Insdustries should start a MMO series called the life series such as Shinobi Life Online and Pirate Life Online and Cop Life Online and Mafia Life Online and Ninja Life Online and Samurai Life Online etc. etc. . That would be pretty epic no?
after slo is released ofc.

No Shiv, for one Shinobi and Ninja means the same thing and Samurais might be added to this. 1 MMO at a time and if Vreg does decide to make another MMO after he is satisfied with how far SLO has got, I am sure he will make a unique one and not a rip off of SLO
-
If Vreg kept making new games he'd spend less time on SLO :(
