Loading time can be fixed easily. Games with a massive amount of stuff with in it have different ways of making the loading faster and the game just as fast too.

Lag with a game such as this is not created from the amount of NPC's or towns and enemies in the game, it is the amount of players on that server at that time. So creating an inside to a ship would help bring the lag down. If you think about it if someone was inside of a ship instead of on the outside while boarding, then there are a few users who are not considered to be on the ocean at that time they are with in the ship. That will free up so lag if another ship were to sail by. It would be the same idea if they added new areas to each island to make them larger and much more equipped for an adventuring pirate. There would be much more space to the island that the amount of users on a given server won't matter much anymore.

So at the end of the day creating an inside to the ships as long as it is done correctly would not hurt the game in speed at all.
