    The portalan lines should actually connect to each termination point, this would simplify the lines - see the attached sample I provided, the red square shows an area that doesn't align and becomes cluttered .portalanlines.pdf

    Damn, in this way is much more complicated... maybe I'll drop off the "lines" idea..

    Nah, they look good! Just keep them as you had them, with two minor changes ...

    1. Make them a little more faint, lower opacity or the like.
    2. Center them offshore near major ports, as they were actually used. Don't center them directly on the shoreline.
