Plus, Legolas didn't sail the day Aragorn died. After he decided to forsake ME he probably took some sailing lessons, before going.

We know Gondor had a shipbuilding tradition and it is possible that some of the Elves who decamped with Legolas may have all got the sea longing. It is possible that as they attempted to restablish the North Kingdom that there was a certain amount of sea traffic between Gondor and Lindon. I imagine it would be more efficient for cargo transport certainly.
