Port Potato launched a Rapid Expansion Project on August 8th , later renamed Expansion Era III, with a goal of a (5k claimblocks small city sized) expansion across the bay from Port Potato. Work so far has been putting signs everywhere making the intentions known, Port Potato will soon claim this land, as the crew is currently out of funds.

'''Port Potato Railways:'''
Port Potato, after seeing a small railroad North West of Port Potato (The "[[Mithlond]] Railways"); has started building our own railroad. It will stretch from the Drydocks, go around Potato Bay, Stop at the current western-most tip of Port Potato (Proper), go via land south to Southern Port Potato, then under water to the Eastern part of Southern Port Potato. ("Port Potato Railways" has been declared the name.)

*9/25/2021 - First the Northern Line was complete, and then the Southern and South Eastern Lines. All that is left, besides some tidying up of the Eastern part of Southern Port Potato; we just have to combine them.

*9/29/2021 - We now have all the land needed to finish the railroad. We also claimed all the land needed for the plots of the Third Expansion Era. We now plan to add the docks, then add 8 more plot to Southern Port Potato. This would be the last addition to Port Potato, possibly permanently. (Quick math leads to pointing to these final plans adding 11,000 claimblocks to Port Potato.)

To finish not just Port Potato, but her docks, Port Potato plans to add docks to the Northern coast of Southern Port Potato.  
To finish not just Port Potato, but her docks, Port Potato plans to add docks to the Northern coast of Southern Port Potato (Now Port Potato).  
*10/4/2021 - Due to how narrow Potato Bay is, many docks have been canceled. The Bay will now be more of a mooring spot then docks. 2 full sized docks will still be installed at South-East Port Potato. The Northern Coast of Southern Port Potato is planned to take 1 50x27 ship, and many dhows/schooners. (These smaller ships will have a dedicated spot to be moored.

'''2/2/22 Progress Report'''
As of the end of the day, Port Potato has established a road link to [[Mithlond]], and has mostly finished her 2 main ways, the East Wall, and West Wall. Both these walls are mostly cosmetic, and don't have a gatehouse yet. Port Potato also now has a fountain, with a second beacon for Southern Port Potato (Second beacon and fountain as Fig. 6). Port Potato will also have actual Drydocks, instead of "wet drydocks", where the water never actually got drained. The official size will be 2 50x20 drydocks. Recommended max size of a ship will likely be 46x17, to allow room on both sides and to prevent the ship claiming the dock as her own. At the same time, [[VISN]] has announced [[Project Black Horse]], more details there. Tl;dr VISN will now move to being an ocean going crew.

Villie hall refit; Wall Project; Port Potato has her own crew ([[PTATO]]); Port Potato now owns a shop, shop1 (s17); we changed Potato prices; restarted a [[Port Potato Shipyards]]' project, making a new [[DNS Northerly Gale]] design (not to be confused with the [[VEN Northernly Gale]]); and also incase this was never mentioned, we "recaptured" all VISN ships, as we left VISN. All that among many other updates that will be forgotten to time.

==== The Renaming and Overhaul Update ====
Southern Port Potato and Port Potato switched names, giving the older Port Potato the new name "Old Port Potato". And now, the wall around Port Potato is mostly complete. We have also moved and upgraded our semi-auto wood farm to include Oak, Spruce, Jungle, and Birch wood, among with some minor touch ups to make the port look better. This is the start of yet another overhaul of Port Potato. More info coming soon.

The canal is 27 wide at the water line, being 6 blocks deep. She is navigable to almost any ship, with no known length limitations, besides the turns to get through the canal. Please review the live map to judge if your ship will fit.
