Blue World by Jack Vance the people are descendants of a crashed spaceship who have the problem that there is no land at least as far as they know. They live on giant floating plants and lost most tech because the ship sank shortly after crashing. They get metal back by using blood as the source which makes for a very limited supply even after they develop methods to kill large sea life and drain them.
