EU3: Loading Units On To Ships

I checked Splines' tracker today to find a lot of my visitors are referred through a Google search under the query 'How do I load units onto my boats in Europa Universalis?' or some such. Well, I just happen to know the answer - and you're going to be kicking yourself. So, due to popular demand, here's the solution you've been searching for:

To load your units onto ships in Europa Universalis 3, simply order your ships into an ocean square adjacent to the territory in which you have armies, when the ships have reached their destination (this process usually takes around 2/3 days) order your men to move into the ocean square - they will do so, and, instead of drowning, they will board the boats.

Yes, the solution seems silly. You probably assumed that the boats had to be docked in order that the men could safely walk the gangplank. Today, common sense has not prevailed. However, you may still yet rule the seas. Apply the knowledge I have had conferred upon you this day, and you'll be the scourge of smelly foreigners everywhere.
