Stormy Star is the name of a one to one virtual model of the real Star Boat
Hull, keel and rudder is the original design while rig: mast, boom and sails, is the Marconi rig used in younger boats. All in all a model of today’s Star Boat
* The Star boat was designed in 1910 and was made of wood
* She was a race boat from the start in her own Star Class
* Star boat racing has been part of the olympic game’s program for many, many years
* She is a small keel boat with a long pointed hull and a huge sail compared to hull size
* The small cockpit just for two offers only little comfort
* She has a mainsail and a jib and no spinnaker, trapeze or hydrofoils and does not plane
* The sails can be goose winged downwind which gives a fair running speed
Has:
* A superior wind power engine with better details, nuances and accuracy
* Independently mainsail and jib
* Four selectable wind sources
* Wind shadow. Reduces wind in shelter from scripted objects, say boats
* Crew of two: skipper and sailor
* Single handed sailing
* In-world update station

Information on land impact is incorrect
Information on marketplace tells that land impact is 9. In reality it's 18. I've bought this boat because land impact is important for me, but I did not receive what was advertised.
wonderful boat
I really enjoy sailing this boat. Reminds me of the enterprize dinghy. Sails just as a real sail boat should. Well worth 500 L. Looking forward to racing this boat.
