Playing a multiplayer game with a couple friends and 5 AI players where everyone is Venice (increased CS count as well to accommodate plenty'o'puppets). We are playing a high seas oval map where we re-rolled until all 3 of us got a coastal start.
My game got off to a great start with me securing Great Library around turn 35 and going straight into Iron Working to get the Collosus which I will complete around turn 53. Unfortunately, after scouting the land a bit more I believe I am going to be on an inland sea. Here is my start location:

Here is my tech tree at the moment:

So I just got my first MoV but have no idea what to do with it or what my strategy going forward should be. I have the only capital capable of building Machu Picchu so I will get that eventually but I can't think of a great grand strategy or even what to do with any of my MoV.
My initial thought is to puppet Panama City NW of my cap to give me some coastal trade routes (can I move a cargo ship to a city not connected by water? I imagine not) and then to just maximize science (Oracle, Observatory, etc...) and try and kill the world before their gold really gets going. But I don't have much experience with Venice so I am definitely open to suggestions.
