Could you build this?
No Font creation is a creative design discipline requiring vector typography, bezier curve crafting, and typographic kerning rules rather than software vibe coding.
What it would actually take: Creating a complete typeface requires font design software like Glyphs or FontLab to draw every glyph, define metrics, ligatures, and kerning pairs. While font compilation scripts (using FontTools/Python) exist, the core product is the artistic design of hundreds of vector glyphs adhering to historical maritime aesthetics. This requires an experienced type designer or vector artist rather than a coding assistant.
