Sarcastically says: "There's no boats in some of those lands, how dare this boat deck not have boats in its lands".
Jokes aside, I have done a non extensive search for boat inclusive lands.

To note, while Innistrad #260 / Avacyn Restored #240 Mountains don't have boats, they do have lakes and lighthouses, and those fill out nicely with the other Adam Paquette ISD/AVR land cycle.

- For as creature heavy as this deck is, you have them for your first line of defense and offense, having Aether Meltdown and Dampening Pulse isnt necessary to staying protected. Cutting them out frees up important room for mana ramp cards to get more creatures out faster.
- Needlebite Trap, really only good if youre going up a lifegain deck, and if thats your reason for running it you might as well just sideboard it and only put it in the deck when you need it.
- Drownyard Behemoth a very steep casting cost for a 5/7 that only has hexproof for one turn, which it probably wont even be targeted on. Even the emerge cost is steep.
- Vexing Scuttler another high casting eldrazi that does little in return. Youre better off hoping to drawing another instant/sorcery than having to spend 3 mana on this creature just to bounce one back to your hand.
- Grizzled Angler Flip a decent early game blocker, but its transforming mills your own deck and depends on I feel youve lost a creature. For 3 mana why not cast a Dominator Drone? Its giving you more damage than the Anglers fish side because it hits the board a turn earlier. Id cut just one Grizzled Angler Flip for now, its transformed Ability could be a good way to clear your opponents board of blockers, but you wouldnt need to of him in the field so.

I don't necessarily want to turn it into a Delver of Secrets tempo deck. Want to keep it more creature based.
Was thinking Bloodsoaked Champion and Graveblade Marauder. Orr could go more eldrazi based with Eldrazi Skyspawner and Grizzled Angler

Grizzled Angler Flip is a dead draw you have no colorless spells or creatures in your deck to flip it with. the only way it flips is with Moonmist

So, a new player looking into Mono-Blue Eldrazi-tron- its a great start for modern.
The most important question to consider is not just how you make things more powerful, but what style of deck you want to play. Do you enjoy rushing an opponent before they can react- the aggro archetype - sitting back with a hand full of spells stopping your opponent until they run out of cards and you cast something that slowly beats them- control - or enjoy a more mixed midrange strategy where you aim to cast efficient creatures and work well where your opponent is weak. The possibilities in modern are so varied and the choices of card preference so personal (outside of a hyper competitive environment) that it is more a question of what you enjoy and feel like doing than what is possible.
The core cards for mono blue tron are traditionally Remand, Repeal, Into the Roil and similar in order to stall, Expedition Map to secure lands, Academy Ruins and Mindslaver as a victory condition alondside big, scary colourless creatures, using All Is Dust and Ugin, the Spirit Dragon to clear out resistance.
Mono Blue Eldrazi-Tron is a pretty good example of what competitive lists look like- basicaly everything expensive in there has budget alternatives- however, we're looking for a fun casual deck that isn't super expensive, and presumably functions like this one.
So where to start- in a casual environment it is anything goes, just pick some cards that are fun and rock out, with whatever you find to bridge the gaps. In a medium-competitive environment you'll mostly want four copies of any key card to make it reliable, and around 6-7 cards you build your strategy round, with the rest of the deck supporting it. If you're looking at tournament play I'd reccomend playing a bunch at FNMs or online wherever first.
Personally I'd consider building a midrange deck based around Eldrazi Temple with Blight Herder Oblivion Sower, Reality Smasher Wretched Gryff aiming to drop 3-5 cost powerful threats turns 3-4 before capping out with Bane of Bala Ged and Deepfathom Skulker. To that effect Eldrazi Skyspawner, Ruination Guide, Grizzled Angler Flip would all have a place, with the ever present Mana Leak and Remove Soul to help disrupt my opponent.
If you're wanting to cast bigger spells and run tron lands, consider stuff like Deceiver of Form, Ruination Guide, Drownyard Behemoth, Elder Deep-Fiend, Eldrazi Conscription
To that end, I'd reccomend looking at replacing the smaller creatures like Salvage Drone, Warden of Geometries, Mist Intruder, Cultivator Drone with spells to stall your opponent and look through your deck for lands, like Expedition Map, Chromatic Sphere.
A list running mostly blue counterspells and cards like All Is Dust could benifit from Docent of Perfection Flip Voracious Reader Flip and Vexing Scuttler.
You could go to purely Wastes for your manabase with Chromatic Star and friends to provide colour and run Walker of the Wastes
Some cards which have proven to be a little silly in competitive play, should you chose to use them are Eldrazi Mimic, Matter Reshaper, Thought-Knot Seer and the traditional Emrakul, the Aeons Torn.
For mana prodicing creaures- they're great in casual games or if you can protect them- in more comptetive play you'll see more stuff like Mind Stone or Sylvan Caryatid as they're harder to kill or 1 mana Elvish Mystic manadorks to cast something before they're removed.
All told, run some playtests, look at what other people are running on here, try it out and most of all have fun.(also, if you are secretly a casual control player, Zur's Weirding is hilarious. Just saying)

Crop Sigil, Vessel of Nascency, Fork in the Road and Grizzled Angler Flip can all get a land in the yard pretty reliably. Lumbering Falls just makes turn 4 Kiora slightly more obtainable.
