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.

Dear Motor Loon , all my boats are mod, so i can put in it the necessary script to have that realistic effect but as you know you cant do this with Loonetta, i hope you soon introduce this effect by an update or even better (LOL) a MOD copy? ;))) my compliments to the fantastic work done on that boat , it's a masterpiece !! Greetings from Italy
OMG!!! Awesome boat!!
I purchased the Oceanic sailboat a few days ago cause a lot of my friends have the Loonetta 31, I wanted something different :)) You can read my review of that boat under that boats demo page. I went, yet again on a ride on the Loonetta 31 and again was so impressed with the design, the handling, the features, stability of the boat as well. When only the best will do all one has to do is turn to Motor Loon boats and you have the best sailboats in SL and a lot of fun sailing in the best boat possible.
I purchased the Loonetta 31 and took the boat out onto the Blake Sea alone. A novice sailor at best I wanted to see if I could handle this boat. Yes its SL and if you crash the boat will be returned with auto return you dont feel wet from being at the bottom of the ocean lol However, I take the challenge of skill and knowledge seriously even in SL. I wanted to have a boat I could sail not crash and laugh about. This boat is so awesome and stable that even a novice can sail her well and have a lot of fun doing so!!!
The designer doesn't leave you guessing how to do anything on their boats. You can read instructions and understand all the features you have with this boat. I was even able to watch a youtube video made by Motor Loon, how to change textures and even the place a name on the boat to make it more personal to you. The Loonetta 31 is more than just another sailboat on SL, its a work of art, a master piece. Great job Motor Loon for such great products and the tremendous customer service you give your customers. Thank you!!
Totally Awesome
This is by far the best sail boat out there. I am beyond impressed with design and look not to mention how well it handles. If you are looking for a great sail boat then look no more!!!!
The only thing I would ask to change is to have the bell/horn work by chat command versus clicking the boat.
second boat
I bought and reviewed the oceanic. I loved it so much that when I needed a shorter boat for smaller slip, I did not even bother to research. Loonetta.. that is all there is to say. I love these boats. You cannot go wrong?
perfect
the boat is beautiful easy to customize and fun to sail the only thing im not happy about it the customer service i bought the boat at the 1st of the month and havent heard anything since :( otherwise everything else gets 5 stars :)
