A ship knowledge tree would be real progression and make more sense. You sail more, you learn more. You specialize in boarding, you get more knowledge in boarding. Same with perks.

By knowledge tree you are talking about you unlock ship points (like knowledge solts right now) and with this points you could invest them into (for example) boarding and you get access to boarding books? With the next ship point you could unlock even more boarding books or you choose ship handling and get some speed books unlocked.

You are not talking about that you need to use the merc to unlock progression for the cerb right? (like tested in patch 10)

Yeah, I would love to see something like the Civ-series research tree being implemented here to simulate knowledge.  Could be by ship, by rank, or comprehensively by both.
