Orient Star - where are the lifeboats?
« on: August 27, 2010, 12:17:37 »
Hi

Not wanting to complain, but judging from pics I have seen, there are no lifeboats onboard the Orient Star?

Is there a reason for this - even in trials I am pretty sure they always have lifeboats...

What you really need is someone with the V1.1. patch added on top  :2thumbs:

Right, you can't deploy them in free roam, no.
Only in missions :/

The davits are the metal arms that raise and lower the lifeboats.

Right, you can't deploy them in free roam, no.
Only in missions :/

If a ship is fitted with deployable boats they CAN be used in free roaming. E.G. Agile Solution, Vermaas, POR (RIB only) and others. :thumbs:

Sorry, not POR. my apologies.

Sorry folks I made a mistake. :-[ The Rib on POR can not be deployed, but Agile Solution, Orient Star (RIB), Orient Prince and Vermaas all have deployable boats in Free roaming. My apologies for a misleading comment.

No worries Traddles  ;D
I'm quite glad you said that, I prefer Orient Star to have a RHIB than POR!

Matthew, POR is fitted out with two lifeboats and an RIB on each side, but sadly they are not deployable. :(
