This was one we discussed and abandoned about 9 months ago. The idea was that we could have NTW style units and mutiple large guns (NTW style) on variable ships that would sail around and bomb each other and even allow for boardings. The sea scape would be dotted with islands/land mass with fortifications to add realism and mirror harbour defences and famous battles which rarely occurred out on the wide open sea -which would be boring to play on.

MTW did not allow for any of this to eb possible, but now that RTW has the siege equipment that does not count as a unit in the actual army it may be possible to mod this siege devices to vessels and place fighting crew, marines, and multiple cannons on boards.
The possibility to release men/acquire men from the land terrain seems also possible- which would make for a fascinating variety of maritime battles.
Rebels would be pirates....
Kings would be admirals, and their heirs commodores...etc
MP and the single player gives us endless arrays of modding possibilities based on sea/harbour battles and ownership rather than castels and provinces.

I am not a modder, but i am passionate and i do know my history, i will help to organise and direct the project as best i can, hell i'll even try modding...

Anyone else interested?
