My first boat ever!
This one took a lot of work, but here is my crane ship.
It's built for transport between smaller harbors, but also to places without a port. Because of the crane its possible to drop off and pick up containers in the most remote places.
It features a working crane, a fully functional steering chamber and handling like its fully loaded.
Controls:
Crane:
Roll - Turn
Trim - Move magnet along arm
Pitch up - drop magnet
Boat:
Yaw - Steer
Throttle to 100% - Activate engine
VTOL up - forward thrust
VTOL back - reverse thrust (reduced, for manouvring)
Act1 + Yaw - bow thruster (for extra hard steering)
Act2 + VTOL up - extra thrust (for sailing long straight lines)
Act8 can deactivate the gyro. It'll still work fine but it'll be more shaky
I've never built a ship before so any feedback is welcome. I can upload the functional part simulating the big ship handling properties if someone is interestend.
Thanks for downloading and enjoy!

@RedRightHand Thanks!
Noticed that too, sometimes it stays attached, some times it doesn't for some reason. It's mostly esthetic anyway :)
I don't know why but for some reason the magnet doesn't stick it just always falls off other than that good job
