Larsson Color Me Cute Rowboat For Easy Fun On Water! Version 3.0

Few moments are as relaxing as casually rowing a gracefully designed little boat along lovely region waterways or across the vast open reaches of the Blake Sea.

This classic style three-person rowboat is just what you need for those relaxing good times enjoying the scenery and chatting about things, reflecting about the world and coming back to yourself.

At only 12 prims, you can leave your favorite little boat out to always be ready at a moment's notice.

I updated this boat on April 2, 2022. Here are the details:

Step 1. Rez your rowboat and wear your oars. The oars will automatically be attached to your hands.

Step 2. When you sit your avatar is placed in the classic rowboat rowing position facing the stern of the boat. Your view will follow behind the boat at 7.5 meters as you move about.

Step 3. If you need to rescale the boat, just touch the gray "Samson Post" mooring bollard at the bow to get the blue on-screen rescale menu for the boat. Each oar can also be rescaled by touching each to get the on-screen rescale menu.

Step 4. Use your page up and down keys to control the rowing speed. There are three speeds from 1 (slow) to 3 (not so fast). You will see your speed selection reported in private chat each time you change speed.

Step 5. Control direction using the controller arrows on your keyboard or on your viewer screen.

Step 6. Notice there is a rowing animation only when you are moving, and when you stop there is a relaxed stationary resting oars sit position with a gentle side to side head movement. You go back and forth between these animations whenever you stop or start with your motion control.

Step 7. The twenty (20) colors definitely live up to the "Color Me Cute" name for this boat. The outside of the boat hull will change colors, and notice that the wood trim, the seats, and the interior hull will remain the classic original wood trim texture.

You change the hull colors by saying the color name in chat channel #5. For example keying /5white in the open chat line at the bottom of your viewer will change the hull to white. Using the /5 channel merely hides these commands from others nearby you so you don't clutter the chat with your instructions (its also a lot more convenient than messing with an on-screen hud).

The twenty colors are: white, red, blue, yellow, orange, green, olive, teal, purple, navy, silver, gray, black, maroon, aqua, lime, fuchia, pink, brown, and indigo,

Step 8. Take a friend or two with you. There is a relaxing seat in the stern (rear seat) and this passenger will sit facing the bow toward the rower. The bow cushion is also a seat and the passenger there will face the stern. All seats are adjustable using the AVSitter menu whenever you sit.

Step 9. Check out the two puppies and the spare oars. Each item can be made visible or invisible as you like by touching them. The dogs bark when you key "w" on channel 5. You can also sound a bosun's signal whistle by keying "s" on channel 5.

Step 10. Have lots of fun. Go on adventures on SL waterways everywhere.

Also, feel free to contact me if you need assistance. I am always happy to help. Let me know if you have a special name you would like on the stern of your boat. Happy to do this for you.
