Docks spawn in Terminal Spycakes and Terminal Camodo, the ship spawn in Terminal Spycakes.


History (Fictional):
Built in 1917 as the schooner RSS Southbank ,she served several ports in the arctic as a cargo vessel until 1939.
The war proved to be tough for her, she was converted to a minesweeper and suffered serious fire damage after a bomb hit her.

After the wars
She was rebuilt as a Arctic Trawler in 1947 and served her new owners well into the 70’s when she was laid up.
In the 70’s she was also converted into a weather station for her new owners, tho this career would end in 1985 when she was laid up again this time for 15 years.
In the early 90’s she was restored and was moved to the National Museum of Sawyer as a museum ship.
In 2017 a hard storm hit the town where she was located, she unfortunately capsized. After that the museum was in deep dept and was forced to sell of their assets for money.

A second change at life
She was purchased by OV – Line and they put out a plan to convert her to a small car ferry operating between the isles of Spycakes and Camodo.
After a successful conversion she had sponsons fitted on her sides to aid in stability, new superstructure and bridge equipment was installed and new liferafts that fit the new safety laws were installed.
The whole interior saw an fresh update with a new passenger kiosk and engine room added.
After the refit OV – Line put M/S Trader to work on the small isles and she was quite popular with the public, so public that they extended her operating life by a fresh refit in 2031.
She still sails these beautiful islands and you can still book a trip with her.

Pretty good as it is a small vessel with not that many physics bodies.


Starting Up:
To start up the ship you need to make your way to the bridge, after you have made your way to the bridge go to the helm and look to your left.
There should be switches to start up the vessel, using the throttle you can speed up the engine.
