BOAT SINKERS ULTIMATE BOAT GUIDE
Hi guys, and welcome to my ultimate boat guide. In this guide you will find a large variety of boat classes and designs. Each boat will have a briefing and rating scores. All boats in this guide have been made before in the RND flood server . Some are common, and then you have some that are rarely made. This guide will also help you with finding new designs for your boat. All of these pictures were took in a single player server and built by me. I used fraps to screen shot each one.These are the different classes of boats or towers you will be seeing throughout this guide:
Fail Boats
Classics
Log boats
Towers* my favourite
Uber boats
Experimental
Each boat will be given a rating that looks like this:
Cool Factor /10 - How aesthetic the boat is. The higher the rating, the cooler the boat looks and feels when riding.
Max comfortable Passengers - How many players can stay on the boat without feeling crowded. The higher the number, the more players the boat can fit.
Difficulty /5 - How hard the boat is to make. The higher the number, the difficulty in making it increases. Also, this means that the boat will take longer to make.
Buoyancy /10 - How well the boat can float on its own. The higher the score, the more effective it is in staying high above the water.
Stability /10 - How well the boat can stay upright with passengers on it. The higher the number, the less it has a chance of capsizing/ tipping over.
Frequency /10 - How common the boat is to be seen in use. The higher the number, the better chance of you seeing this boat being made.
Efficiency /100 - How good the boat is if in use for flood. It does not calculate the average for all characteristics. The higher the number, the better the boat is in sinking the enemy and how much of a bang for your buck you get.Fail BoatsIn this section you will see the worst of the worst. All of these boats have been made by newbies that don't understand the buoyancy of props.The penny pincher
This boat is the cheapest possible boat to make. It is so crappy that within a second it will be destroyed. The bottom is made out of wheels to cut costs even more.Cool Factor 4/10
Max comfortable passengers 1-2
Difficulty 1/5
Buoyancy 6/10
Stability 6/10
Frequency 3/10
Efficiency 5/100 I realized how long this would take me if rated every boat so I'm just going to show the pictures. p.s - tower, uber boat, and experimental boats have descriptions to read.
O yes, you will end up in a grave yard.
You can get a bath, and drown at the same time!
When pigs fly...
It floats, but it just doesn't cut it. You'll be sinking just a little bit, and that's enough to kill you.
Have a seat on your LaZ Boi recliner and drown.ClassicsThese boats are the most commonly used boats. They are very easy to make and are half decent in getting the job done. Because they are very simple and you know what they are, i wont make descriptions for these boats.
Log BoatsThese boats are also very common, but cost more money to make. This is because it involves more props. These boats are very strong against bullets, but rpg's are their main weakness. They do not float as effectively, so therefor cannot hold as many people as vending machine boats.
This is for the single sailor, just hoping to stay alive.
This is the redneck raft. Just barely gets the job done.
This is a frame log boat. Its design cuts down on costs and floats the best out of all raft designs.
Your average log boat Has a side log to keep everything together extra well. 
This has two lairs of logs. It is very expensive, but is very strong against attack.
This is a very long log boat. Also has a mast for passengers to stay up on.TowersThis is my favourite section. It involves using high hp props and rigid rope. By doing this you can make them indestructible. Also, because they can be above the water, no one can come on after the round starts. Unfortunately, towers are no longer in use due to their superb strength. Lockers use to have 1999 hp but now have been toned down to 200hp. For more stable towers, make them right along a wall. Another tip is to rope all lockers on the lockers to the base lockers in many combinations. the more ropes the better! Almost all of these towers cannot be built due to rigid rope disabled. Even if rigid rope was enabled again, lockers would need to be put back to 1999hp for them to be effective.
Please bring towers back, we need them to save the game. New, stronger weapons are causing boats to get destroyed quickly. With towers this will not happen. 
This is a poor man,s tower. Its weakness is the low hp base.
This is one of the simplest towers. Due to its thin design it will tend to sway if you move left to right (lots of fun).
This is an average version of the tripod shaped towers. Uses 2 lockers instead of one on the top.
This is a very stable and strong tower. It is simple, but very strong due to its length.
This is an armored version of the tripod tower. It has 2 layers of lockers going horizontal on the top and has walls for extra protection.
This tower has a triple lair system that are all roped to the base for added strength. If some are destroyed, you will still be standing. I like this kind of design because it has a locker sticking out. The purpose of this is to press z and remove the nails attaching i to hit boats bellow you or to get rid of passengers standing on it 
.
This model involves no ropes and can be built. It has multiple logs supporting it. It is very inefficient compared to the rope towers, so you're better off not building this one. 
This tower is the main reason why they were banned. It is a monster! It has a long deck that it protected by walls. The top also has another mini tower on it to further make it better. Another purpose of the top is to un-rope it to crush people that are under it on the tower. Another innovation is a safe-boat under it . If this or any tower happens to fall down or gets destroyed, you can un-rope the boat to survive
.
Another advantage of towers is that you can delete the ropes to make them unusable if people aren't on it and you're not (so it doesn't get damaged).
Uber BoatsThese are big ass boats that rich people make. Odds are they will not build one if minges are in the server.
This uses vertical vending machines in a block format. If you fall off, don't think you can get back on again. Very stable and can hold a whole server.
Your most common uber boat. Big and easy to make. It,s not meant to look nice, just to kill ppl or money round on.
This is a REAL pirate ship, what i call a juggernaut. It is amazing to go on. It as a novelty safe boat on the side for coolness. It uses wheel blades to move around swiftly in the water.
This design was first used by memorex3300. It is soley meant for cruising around in the water fast.
This is the most uber boast i have built and seen. I built it in flood once with a bunch of RND people a while back. It has a huge base, with two levels of towers to stay on. The purpose of the huge base is because the towers make it capsize if the base isn't big enough. It also has wheels to move around 
This is the uber version of the catamaran. It has a walking deck on the top which is pretty nice. Also wheels to move around.
I made this boat on the server back then for lulz. Very unique design, and will break apart in many pieces if some pieces are destroyed.
This is a platform design that stays a bit higher off the ground than a normal boat.
This design was invented by underdog, it is a double laird boat that is extremely strong against attack. If you fall off, you're going to have a hard time getting back on.ExperimentalThese boats have been made, but are more meant for aesthetics and are very unique. These are a bit like uber boats.
This is my design, and is very odd. It is composed of many layers at different levels. It is extremely solid and tips a bit due to its height. This was one of my hardest boast to make because in construction, i had a lot of difficulty in freezing the layers covered by other layers. 
I call this the o-ring. It is small, but pretty cool. Its has 200hp vending machines in a ring and some vending machines in the middle.
This has vending machines in a zig-zag formation with a higher layer in the middle. 
This is the hungry caterpillar. And yes, it actually does stay in that arched formation when unfrozen. I looks cute, but tips over when in the water (due to the arch).
This is the very racist swastika boat. It has Hitler standing on it for lulz. It is actually a half decent boat that floats well.
This boat is relatively cheap to make, but is cool because it has platforms that stay high above the waterAnd that's it. Hope you've enjoyed this guide. It took me a long time to make this so yeah...Other People's BoatsFeel free to post your own boat designs and I will add them in this section.One of Boat Sinkers boats he made
