the thing is that boats do not realy work anyway.
some server use simulated boats- you walk up to the boat and teleports you to next location where real boat would have made next stop, but there is no real boat travel. - there reason for this is because long time SOE managed to broke the solidity of boat model, so it no longer capable of carrying player on it- you will fall throw if try to step on it. The SOE "fixed" this by adding translocators and telling everyone that strange magic prevents boat travel =)
They eventualy did fixed the real boats that was way long after Titanium release
But anyway, what you should realy look for is the server which disabled PoK books, rather than POP itself (there is nothing wrong with Planes of Power, the problem is only with PoK books =)
When my server (which is curently in development) goes to live - there won't any clicky books around
