I do not know how it was originally obtained. It used to belong to Olman River.

You can name a ship anything. Also if yhou don't name a ship before re- modeling it, it becomes "a ship model".

I could name my ship "Derricks cruise line" and put it up for sale if you want.

The ship is placeable, though I personally wouldn't recommend doing it. I cannot speak to the dye-ability of dry-docked ships however this item was originally given to a player by Derrick for their assistance with a bug according to GM Braden.

Just to clear something up, i did not originally own that, and im not sure where it came from either.

Very very neat though!

The idea of this ship seems to be from current era Ultima Online. Only it's called, "Ship Model Of The H.M.S. Cape" and are obtained by killing Leviathans in the sea, or doing level 6 treasure maps. I'm not sure if the ship spawns in more then one direction, but you'll notice there's also a, "Ghost Ship Anchor" if you're looking through the uoguide.com site.

Either way, in this era, it's clearly a custom rare, so I'd say that's worth a lot.

*Hope this helps*

Although it is unique, the fact that

1) It look exactly the same as any other dry docked ship, but grey.
2) Its small.

Severely lower its value imo. Be interesting to see Blackfoots valuation of this. I would start at 500k personally but that's me, not because im interested, because im not, and trying to low ball, but for the above reasons.
