Description:
Old Sally, Tanker/Tender Ship

"Old Sally" is an old Tanker/tender ship; loosely based on the T2-Tankers of WWII. She’s intended for two main career uses, as a simple tanker to buy and sell fuels. Or as a tender ship to refuel and resupply any fleet ships on demand or left as a mobile gas station in remote locations.
She comes with a 200,000L Cargo hold for any fuel type that needs transporting. Two large cranes for ease of transfer along with 3 hose extenders located in the Aft storage to help with refuelling land based vehichles.

  • Price in non-creative, 316,000$
  • Cargo Tank, 200,000L
  • Personal Fuel, 62,500L
  • Large Aft storage to help resupply any first person equipment to your ships
  • Study compartmentalised hull creates a study and hard to sink vessel
  • semi-working anchors can help keep in in location
  • A Top speed of 16kts (full) and 14kts cruising.
  • Comes with two lift rafts, and 2 lifeboats
  • Impossible to overheat engines!
  • Old map chart with "You are here" updating red dot.

great for roleplay, tomfoollery or business ventures!

Ship Operations

– To Start it, crank throttle above 50%, turn on Engine Pumps, leave in neutral and press the starter (may need to press a couple times)

-Refuelling the ship itself; do not use the crane tenders, instead there is a hose connect on the base of the crane, this is intended for the personal fuel tanks

-UNLOADING AND LOADING FLUIDS; The pump breaker in the back end of the bridge next to the map screen must be flipped ON. Then you may flip the pump in/out flip switches to unload/load respectfully. Then swing out the Boom cranes and connect the hoses to the creation or dock.
***Cargo hold fluid spawner located near engines if you wish to change/empty on spawning the cargo hold (Default diesel)
The Cranes may stick! just gotta crank the throttle and pull hard on the ropes to free them (Weird clipping bug)

-Bow Ballast for empty travel to help balance some of the weight.

-Lifeboats; To launch the forward liferafts, simply disconnect and push and wait until the ship sinks enough. liferafts are full emergency, just to keep you out of the water until rescue. Lifeboats, disconnect the lower bow and stern ropes (these keep them from violently swinging in storms. Then lower the davits, YES it will snag slightly on the deck but will be find, keep lowering until they hit the water. Then disconnect the stern davit rope, then the bow davit rope. Lifeboats have limited range and time, and again are meant to keep you safe until rescue. HOWEVER these are base on OLD designs which like their real life counterparts were not that great and yes can flip.

-TO START THE FIRE. Shift up to gear 3, 100% throttle. Then turn the key located to the left to unlock button; Push button and wait ~1min.
***(Apearently does not work with Infinite Fuel on. I don’t play with this setting ever so did not know, sorry for the confusion)

-SCUTTLING; Turn key on the left, go through the button sequence. Sinking isn’t quick, it takes time Roughly ~10mins to notice it. (Quicker in stormy weather and with open lower deck doors) – This ship WAS Originally design NOT to sink easily, so this feature is slow, sorry. Want it to go super fast? open all the doors, you’ll sink in seconds in rough weather.

-NOT HELD LIABLE FOR ANY MEGALODON DONE DAMAGE!
