I've seen people say that it's two boats again, then nothing. So I think it might be a weekly pattern.

I have just had the one puzzle boat today and the next one is not one.
Yeah me too, but I did get one in a free mystery box.
I have been looking at the "new" Week 2 iteration of the puzzle piece boats, and I have to say they are BRUTAL. My first 2 puzzle piece boats in Week 1 were regular boats just with a PP. These (obviously tweaked) Week 2 PP boats are all the ines I would cast off otherwise. They want creams, sugars, syrups, jams, ice creams, duck feathers, lobster products and fish products in obscene amounts. It's obviously coded this way by SC to give us a painful decision: hold our lobster stuff for townies and etc, or get 1/180 puzzle pieces.
For me, this is just one more nail in the Animal Sanctuary coffin. I'm not going to ask ANYBODY to give me 15 brown sugars, a pile of duck feathers, or 12 hours of production of lobsters for one measly puzzle piece.
I'd be a happier camper and more willing to do the PP boats if they were regular boats, not Extra Painful Boats, AND if they were not limited to 2 a week. At least then I could weigh the pros and cons of casting off a horrifying boat, betting I would get another one that might be easier.
As it stands now, if I cast off a PP boat because I don't want to fill it and I know my neighbors and friends won't fill it either, I don't get another one to replace it. It's 2 PP boats a week, do or do not.
With these quantities and types of products requested by puzzle boats, I think I'll DO NOT.
I've had one boat with, one boat I cast off & the next boat is without.
Perky, I never do 'horrible' boats (and still won't) but I've done a few boats with some 'horrible' crates recently because I wanted to fill the other crates Strangers seem happy to fill them...bizarre I know. I'd hate my friends to fill them, but if strangers want to, for whatever reason, then great. If not it can go part filled - but I've not needed to do that yet.
So please friends, do not fill horrible crates unless you have a burning urge to do so!
My 2 puzzle piece boats were not particularly hard boats. It must be random.
I can't as yet contribute any information towards the question if there are 2 boats per week only or if there will be more. Neither do I know if there will be more puzzle boats if you refuse those 2 boats today.
I posted the other day that I had zero puzzle pieces from boats/treasure chests/red boxes and 2 from the derby. I since sent a support ticket to SC directly from my game and low and behold, a couple of boats later I had a PP on my boat then 2 more boats no PP then my current boat is a PP. Will have to wait and see if there will be more after these 2.
Total PP as of June 27, 2017: 5
2 from boats
1 from Derby
2 from unlocked Sea chests
Had one this morning and another one is coming in a few hours. Also got one from a mystery box. Three recent pieces all went to the same puzzle too, so that rocks.
I've had 2 puzzle boats today, and next one is not a puzzle boat. We shall see if the one after that is a puzzle boat or of the drought persists to next Tuesday.
