Riften Boat House

WIP

This adds a player home, in the form of a longboat, to the lake behind Riften. The boat is moored to the end of the previoiusly-ruined pier, and is follower-accessible. I did, however, restrict the navmesh in the player's room, so followers couldn't trash the place. They can get around the ship and use the crew rooms, but they can't get into your alchemy/enchanting area.

The interior was made from scratch, so bear with me if you spot something that doesn't quite match up. I couldn't find an interior of the longboats. It has a mini forge and workshop in the bow, with anvil, bench, wheel, tanning rack, a bunch of no-respawn storage, and an enchanted blacksmith's apron to get you started. There are a few ingots, of which only the iron and steel respawn.

Amidships, there are some weapons racks, as well as shelves full of crew armor. This armor can be taken, but should not fall apart when you enter the space or bump into it. Good luck getting it back up there, though. On top of the shelf is a staff of fireballs. Behind the steps, there are a few sacks and a barrel, and the crew rooms (follower) are on either side of them. The doors open outward because of the small space.

At the stern is the master's quarters, with an alchemy and enchanting station and more secure storage. There is a low level alchemy enchantment there, and a couple of respawning soul gems. The shelf decor, again, is set to stay in place, but can be taken. Some of the decor respawns, while some does not. There are two weapon racks and a shield plaque, as well as more storage.

The really awesome Sovngarde music plays when below decks...because I love it.

All containers on the ship have been marked no respawn, but the loose food does, as do some of the clothes.

Topside, there is some more respawning food and a makeshift grill, with a usable cookpot. Most of what's up there is static, but the chairs are usable, and there is a static dwarven ballista. I don't have an earthly clue how to make that thing work, so it's just for looks.

Update* The bed now gives a well rested bonus. It doesn't display a message, but it does show up in active effects. The brazier in the bow now contains a portable smelter. The animation doesn't fit the confined space 100%, but it's pretty close. The two shelves of loose armor have now become the ship's armory, and can function like any other container. It does not respawn, and the items displayed on the shelves are now found inside.

Update 5/17/2014* I added a practice dummy to the mast, and a small dinghy with an archery target on the lake. Added a map marker so you can discover it and fast travel right to it. You'll appear on the dock, at the foot of the gang plank.

Update 6/10/2014* Replaced a missing dock, at the rear of Honeyside and cleaned with TESVedit v 3.0.31

Hope you enjoy. Thanks to Bethesda.
