OSV Fathom

The OSV Fathom is the latest addition to the FX Marine Series. At 32 meters long, this multi-purpose offshore service vessel is a smaller and relatively simpler version of the OSV Stormwind.

Originally created to be a buoy tender, it is still capable of carrying out various offshore tasks including submersible deployment, towing operations, cargo (single ISO container) delivery and even firefighting. Equipped with Hunter Falkner's excellent dynamic positioning system, it can hold its position in bad weather and handles well even in rough seas. As with all my other creations, I like to keep my designs simple and practical to minimize lag.

Ship Movement

1. Turn on engine fuel.
2. Turn off clutch to move forward.
3. Use engine throttle to adjust speed.

Dynamic Positioning.

1. Ship has to be in neutral (clutch on) for DPS to work.
2. DPS is electric powered and consumes a lot of battery power in strong winds. Keep engine throttle above 30-40% for generators to produce positive charge rate.


Crane Operation

1. Use Crane Operator's seat to control main crane.
2. To use remote controller, switch on Remote Control Mode (default channel 0)

- Crane pivot and arm movements are same as seat.
- 1 & 2 to extend or retract winch.

If you enjoy my creations and would like to see more frequent uploads or even feature requests, please consider buying me a coffee and thanks so much for your support!



Please do not re-upload my creations under any circumstances. Making modifications to suite your own personal needs is fine but DO NOT upload them to the workshop. It takes days, weeks and sometimes months to create a single ship or aircraft. Blatantly stealing someone else's work and uploading them as your own is NOT cool. Unauthorized re-uploads will be reported!
