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.

Best Sailboat in SL
This is the second (and last) sailboat I have purchased in SL. It is the very best! The Loonetta 31 is easy to sail, it is easy to customize and a joy to own. I have sailed the Blake Seas and adjoining waterways for 3 years and this boat never fails to bring complete satisfaction. Everyone who is interested in sailing the SL waters should own one.
This is sooooooo nice, a live-aboard, a nice, realistic sailboat, and it parties hard!
Look around a marina and you'll see a LOT of these around. Why? Because for your 40 prim equivalents of land impact (so your marina manager will wuv you), you get an enclosed stateroom, a lounge seating several guests, a working galley, working BATHROOM, more nice seats over the stern and around the wheel... even strings of lights around the ship if you want to create a festive atmosphere around your ship for a party! I love mine, and my friends love it, too!
A Sailor's Dream Worth Every Linden
I wanted a sailboat with an engine, and after a good deal of research I went for the Loonetta 31. Being pretty new to SL as well as sailing SL, I had several questions, and was impressed with the builder's helpful and very prompt responses.
The boat itself is a delight. It's very easy to sail, both responsive and realistic-feeling, and the very low prim count makes it inexpensive to maintain in harbour. It looks good and offers lots of retexturing options. You can also fill it with your friends, string up the party lights, and break out the beer. Strongly recommended to anyone, even SL novices. Enjoy!
