Groundbreaking new sailboat from Motor Loon's workshop.
With focus on visual details, handling and lowimpact scripting MLCC is proud to present the OCEANIC.
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 custommade 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 4 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 a free demo version is available, fully featured except from being unable to change from a paintjob with "demoversion" on it.

Fantastic boat!
Besides looking great and sailing perfectly, the menu-driven pose system is brilliant. Even in many of the Blake Sea sims that have their auto-return set at 10 minutes, I have had my boat returned the second I stand up. It's great to be able to actually move around different areas of the boat without this happening. I hope Mr. Loon is building more boats in the near future, and if they're anywhere near as good and sensibly planned and built as this one, we're going to be seeing a lot of them on the water.
Brilliant!
I have to admit i was skeptical, since this is a first for Motor Loon, but...wow!
I own a lot of boats, for racing, cruising, big boats, small boats. And this one is just amazing.
Very smooth to sail, it feels like it's sailing, no jerky sudden movements. The great quality of the sounds also helps adding to the feel of sailing. The rudder system alone is a work of art! This is not an "auto pilot" boat, the bwind engine works great for it and although forgiving to new sailors, the experienced ones can also have a lot of fun. The pose system is fantastic, allowing you to pretty much, never stand up and avoid the pesky autoreturn. Switch from the helm position to lounging on the deck via the menu and back again! And after all this, you have the details...for a non wearable, with only 32 prims, you find so many details that it looks like magic! Finally, you might think with so many "systems", this is a script heavy boat...it's not. Smooth sim crossings, no problems at all, no half rezed boat after a crossing.
Try the DEMO, you will fall in love with this boat.
A very good buy!
Dont have to be a rl captain to drive this boat.. So smooth and nice! Very good buy!
Very Nice
I am very happy with my purchase. It was a snap to change the flag texture, and the sail textures to anything I wanted, so much better then having to purchase sail textures. The Bwind engine works nice with the size of this craft. and also nice to have a motor, I got the demo first, and loved it. Now it's time to take her out, and maybe stop in a quiet place for some fishing :)) Oh P.S., I have over 25 sailboats, and the Oceanic will be at the top of my list to use. nuff said!
Well Worth the Linden...
The best boat I have ever seen or sailed on SL by far. Very nice job Motor, hope to more.
Wow!!
I have sailed many boats in sl but nothing as good as this one. It is quite simply the best yet. A fantastic craft and only 32 Prims...amazing! No more awkward sim crossings or wearing attachments. I can move around the boat and so can my friends while it is sailing. First class and 10 stars...well done Loon you got a winner here. If in doubt try the demo...you'll be hooked lol
