The concept of lone frigate operations works well with the SH system, but the problem for a mod conversion is that the effect of wind doesn't appear to be properly modelled on the game and therefore you'd find it difficult to move your ship in an authentic way

too bad, and i don't know of any other games that specifically captures that sort of isolated age-of-sail experience.

EDIT: And welcome to SUBSIM pupuplader


I was thinking that if you could designate a set value of speed for a specific weather type you could work around this. Thought I would ask here for any ideas.

Is this even plausible, are there anyone else out there that would like to see a mod like this.

Thanks for the tips and any advice

Are you speaking of a MOD for something along the lines of "Age of Sail" or "Age of Sail II"?
