📋 About This Mod

Always thought it was kinda buns that you only ever get to ride the boat into Raven Rock the very first time you visit. Now you can ride the boat every time!

All this mod does is remove a tiny chunk of the DLC2DialogueRRQuestScript that checks if its your first time visiting Solstheim - now every time you sail with Cpt. Gjalund Salt-Sage you'll get to watch the sweet harbor animation.

Only edits one script - compatible with anything that doesn't edit that same script - In my 1100 mod load order it conflicts with nothing.

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

This small immersion mod for Skyrim removes the first-time-only check for the boat ride to Solstheim, allowing players to watch the harbor arrival animation every time they sail with Captain Gjalund Salt-Sage. It edits a single script, making it highly compatible with most mod setups.

✨ Key Features

Removes the first-time-only restriction on the boat ride to Solstheim.
Allows the harbor arrival animation to play every time you travel by boat.
Edits only one script (DLC2DialogueRRQuestScript) for minimal impact.
Compatible with mods that don't touch the same script.
Tested by the author in a 1100-mod load order with no conflicts.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Tiny, focused mod that does exactly what it says—no bloat.
  • Author tested it in a massive 1100-mod load order with zero conflicts, so it's safe for heavy setups.
  • Community-approved with 114 endorsements and over 11k downloads.

⚠️ Cons

  • Only affects the boat ride—if you fast travel or use other methods, you won't see the animation.
  • Requires the Dragonborn DLC, so it's useless for players without it.
  • Potential conflicts with mods that overhaul the same quest script, though the author reports none in their setup.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who love immersion and want to experience the Solstheim arrival every time, not just the first. Perfect for roleplayers who take the boat regularly. Skip if you rarely use the boat or prefer fast travel.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure you have the Dragonborn DLC installed, as this mod edits its script.
  • If you use a mod manager, just download and activate—no special load order needed.
  • If you encounter issues, check if another mod edits DLC2DialogueRRQuestScript and adjust load order accordingly.
