I think this could be done fairly easily, actually. Simply do the following:

1) Allow a choice of three different hull sizes (already exists).
2) Allow a choice of from one to three masts (already exists).
3) Allow choice of sail layouts based upon the number of masts you chose. This could also be very easily added.
4) Allow choice of color scheme--just like in clothes--for sails, hulls, and trim.

The various sail layouts along with the size of the hull will affect speed and accelleration. AND if Disney would add in wind direction, it could also be used for determining best point of sail.

Also, wouldn't seem to be too hard to allow little extras, like figureheads that could be chosen and bought.

Costs by item (just lik it is now) and VOILA! Yer very own newe custom shippe!
