Amazing sail.
Absolutely a delightful sail boat, I have several others and I am amazed how good this boat is for free.
Stunning!!
This sailboat is amazing. Such a joy to sail. Amazed something this good was free.
so wonderful♥
was a very nice gift from another girl we met at spyglass! Thanking her and the creator for his so nice design and gift!
Great boat
....A free boat
That makes you think it will be a beginner's boat.
Wrong, totally wrong...the boat has a steep learning curve and is definitely not the best boat for a novice sailor.
I bought my first SL sailboat in 2007. 10 years later I have a whole fleat in my inventory.
The Shields became one of my favourite boats
I love this boat much more than some very famous and expensive boats in SL...
Thank you Burt.
Unbelievable
BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE!
not only is this free and stunning, i needed help with my boat and Burt was there within 2 hours resolving my issue! LOVE this boat and Customer Service! TOP NOTCH!
