Sea Weeds will look for and attack a nearby player when bumped by a boat, even if the boat is an enemy pirate boat. Would it not make sense to attack the mobs controlling the boat?

If this is currently intentional, then please take this as feedback, I think it'd be pretty funny to let a pirate boat crash themselves into sea weeds and watch as those dim-witted fools get obliterated, :wink:
