Sorry for late answer, but I tried this already. In some cases it works. 
But ferries at north sea or baltic sea (eg. Rostock-Helsinki) or other 
"ocean"-ferries (Norway-GB) have waysegments with length of more than 
100km. These lines gets broken an I think its impossible to increase 
tiles so much.

One solution would be, that splitter detect long segments and add two 
nodes next to the boarder of the tiles. But I don't know, if this is an 
easy think to detect these long segments.
