Experience our largest regional scenery yet with now more than 19,000 boats, historic dockyards, destroyers, frigates, ferries, cruise ships, a ‘landable’ carrier, night lighting, wakes and more.

-Original Release Post-

After lots of work and re-work (following the UK world update) we are thrilled to announce the release of Vessels: UK South East!

Experience the UK’s South East coast with over 18,000 vessels populating over 80 yacht clubs, ports, harbours and marinas together with coastal traffic. We have populated the coastline and inlets all the way from the Isle of Sheppey down to Keyhaven, just north of the western tip of the Isle of Wight.

Home the world-famous Solent sailing clubs and the large ports of Southampton and Portsmouth, the UK’s South East is teeming with nautical life. Ferries sail from dock to dock whilst leisure craft zip up and down the coast. You’ll also find HMS Victory resting in her historic dockyard and modern-day Navy Destroyers patrolling alongside RNLI lifeboats and Border Force cutters.









This scenery benefits from the new update v1.3.0 for the Vessels Core Library

Check it now via Vessels UK South East - Orbx (orbxdirect.com)

A release on the MSFS Marketplace will come in due course.

As always, have fun and we hope you enjoy what we’ve created :slight_smile:
