I know that it is possible to travel by ship along the coast of China and to/from Korea and Japan. Is there one website that will let me look at all schedules and fares for this kind of traveling? Preferrably in English? I have a website for train travel and plane travel but not for travely by ship.

I am not sure about Korea, but when I checked out boat schedules from Osaka, Japan to Shanghai two years ago, it was actually cheaper to fly than to take the boat. You have to consider the fact you probably want to eat on the voyage, and you are using up a lot more time on the boat. The luggage allowance was the same for a cheap ticket (20kg).

On the other hand, there were not huge fuel costs for plane tickets when I was researching this.

Anyhow, here are schedules for Osaka-Shanghai:
