Freeport decay rates - Seriously need lowered.

[Martyn 246]

I realise there's an element of exploitation in these areas, but I often sail through them to go to "the other side" and I'm loosing between 700 and 1000hp off my hull planks just sailing through it. That's damage I need to repair and resources I need to find, before I get into a fight with sotd etc.

Obviously players on pvp have further concerns as well. 

The needs to be an alternative way of reducing exploitation of freeports, maybe even make it impossible to harvest there after say lv 20.  In  a similar way that people cannot tame animals there.

It's bad enough that the wind speeds in freeports is nearly always horrendous and slow going, to then get penalised further just for sailing through it is not really acceptable, nor is sailing around the region.
