The naval geography of a Germany unified by Austria

How would German naval development change if Austria unified Germany while Hungary and Galicia remained in personal union?

The state would gain industrial capacity and coastlines on three seas, but the Adriatic and northern fleets would remain strategically separated.

The scenario has Austria, rather than Prussia, unify Germany, with Hungary and Galicia initially remaining separate realms in personal union. The resulting power would have North Sea, Baltic and Adriatic coastlines. The Kiel Canal would matter in the north, while the Adriatic fleet would remain separated from its northern counterparts unless a canal could cross the state's central European territory. Greater industrial capacity would support naval development, but the geographically divided fleets could not readily reinforce each other. A state spanning central Europe would also create security concerns for its neighbours, and the continued separation of Hungary and Galicia is questioned.
