How does everyone feel about having the brig section on sunken ships locked and kind of taking the idea from Merchants, you need a key to unlock the brig portion to get a nice amount of treasure akin to a sea fort. You can find where the key is by discovering the logbook on the ship which will tell you the island where the key is (normally the closet island).
I also propose that when you capture a sea fort, it will show the nearest ship wreck on the map that is in the main room on the 1st floor.

@sweetsandman Ya, good idea. Maybe once you read the logbook, it puts a voyage map on your radial with an X marks the spot to show where the crew is, and it's either a marooned NPC holding the key for you to trade some fruit for, or it's a skeleton clasping the key.
