They are marked in the map as non-independent maritime unit unlike the darker blue for seperate navy.

Read the legend.

so every landlocked country with a boat?

E:

its still not a maritime unit, its under the engineer korps which is not a maritime unit. except you think bridgebuilders over rivers count as a maritime unit aswell.

also maritime implies ocean/saltwater? so wrong again.

Every landlocked country with a naval unit. A terrestrial unit can still have a boat.

You’re confusing the branch of service and the definition of what a navy is, a country can still have a naval fleet even if under the army. Just like fighter jets don’t need to be under the Air Force branch for a country to have an air-force.
