Imperial Native naval upgrade
Legendary War Boats is an Imperial Age Native American Dock technology. It costs 1,000 Wood and 1,000 Coin and takes 30 seconds. It increases hit points and damage by 25% for War Canoes, Tlaloc Canoes and Chincha Rafts. It applies to those named ships, not every vessel.
Prepare the fleet before committing
Research when those ships are already part of a fleet that can contest water. The cost competes with additional ships and land forces, and the Dock must remain safe during the long research. The upgrade improves durability and attack together, making it more useful before a decisive naval fight than after ships have already been lost.
