2nd sailboat from Motor Loon's workshop and this one using Mesh for greater detail than you can possibly get with sculpted prims.
With focus on visual details, handling and lowimpact scripting MLCC is proud to present the LOONETTA.
This fully working boat is packed with detail work, and there's no standard building parts used - everything is custom made. You'll find it easy to sail, using the simple Bwind-like system - you can focus on adjusting the mainsail to the wind and everything else is just about enjoying the ride.
A unique pose system was written for this boat, it allows you to remain sitting while sailing - but still be able to change to any pose of the ship. This goes for every passenger it carries, and we've sailed it with 17 passengers at once. The benefit of the system is of course that you often find yourself sailing in water where you don't have rez rights and autoreturn is active - so standing up while underway would have caused your boat to be returned to you.
Boat is no-mod, but - comes with a retexturing system so you can apply your own personal look. Any prim of the boat can be retextured, and it even comes with 7 different "looks" built-in from the factory.

Other cool details are e.g. the working folding-screw, working animated anchor, deployable fenders for docking and a WALK-IN cabin, fully loaded with furniture and even a bathroom. No extra rezzing is needed, no attachments needed to be worn, no HUD's needed for sailing. Everything is ready to go as you rez the 32prim boat!
Note that when all sails are up (because of how mesh impact is calculated) the landimpact goes up slightly (to around 38 landimpact).
Loonetta also comes with a deployable sprayhood and ... partylights hanging from the mast and railing.

The Best!!
Customizing this boat one of its great virtues. The explanatory video is any good help. soon have finished the textures of the boat of my dreams. Motor Loon Thanks for this nice boat!
Please think about making a beautiful seaplane mesh. Here's a buyer!
The quality and responsiveness is unmatched (100% Mesh)
Buy this sailboat without hesitation. I have traveled extensively in it and it crosses sims without a glitch. It's a non-racer (such as the Volvo, note: the Volvo's without a cabin), but the Loonetta suits me well. You can also live in it and move around the boat without falling off and being subject to autoreturn. What I would suggest as improvement is an "eject button" in the event there's an unwelcomed griefer. :D P.S. IMHO Buy the Explorer's HUD / Ban Line HUD / Essential for all Vehicles, Explorers, Boats, Planes, and Landlords to avoid falling off sim in any vessel.
Fantastic
This boat has taken vehicle mesh building to another level. Beautifully built, beautifully textured, perfectly scripted and sails perfectly.
Best Boat in SL
I bought this sailboat along with another boat a few weeks back. I've had a few SL boats but nothing has compared to this Loonetta 31. I'm not the best SL Sailer but the boat has a motor to help :) This is the ONLY boat I've had that has smooth sim crossings and doesn't cause me to go flying. This owner offers a demo version of the oceanantic which is really cool. it shows he loves his work... take it for a test and you'll be in love.
Awesome boat!
Cool boat. But were can I get the cover for the cockpit like in the picture here on market?
