SS Skomer (sinkable)

When a ship designer got bored one night, he wondered what would happen if a walking beam engine got put sideways and used to move a propeller. 18 months later and the Skomer was hitting the waves with a propulsion system that’s sure to turn heads.

To start
Head to the engine room located at the rear of the ship
Open the boiler doors and press the ignition button
Closing the door extinguishes the fire, leave it open


To sink
In the deckhouse, enter the first officer’s quarters next to the captain’s quarters
On the keypad on the Marconi machine type either ‘1’ or ‘2’
1 instantly starts the sinking process
2 gives a dynamic sink, you will need to turn up the waves for this


Notes
While she does posses a stabiliser, her design does make her a bit top heavy, take car turning in rough waves
