As i understand it, ancient ships have a 75% chance of sinking if they end their turn in an ocean tile outside your cultural borders (except barbarian vessels).
However, at some point of the game it is fine to explore with them, and they won`t sink any more.
The quesiton is: What is the condition? I would expect some mediveal naval tech like optics or compass, but in my current game I could sail the seas many many techs before those techs were discovered (and I am pretty sure no AI had them eiter).
So what is it?
