📋 About This Mod
At the start, I left to smooth the angles more.
Then I saw that the UV map of the hull was distorted. I tried to fix it, but there was something wrong, I didn't know what. When I saw a real Row Boat, I understood !
The way the boards are placed on the Vanilla mesh is not at all realistic. So I redid almost the entire hull to be able to have a more realistic UV map. And other stuff...
It seems simple like that, but I really broke my head on this FYX :')
I kept the original shape as much as possible because otherwise the boat would have been incompatible in many places in the game. On the other hand, I plan to add new row boats one day.
- Rebuilt the hull to have a more realistic UV map

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust with 2,635 endorsements and 1.2M downloads.
- No ESP means it won't bloat your load order or cause conflicts.
- Adds subtle but noticeable visual polish to a common world object.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in March 2023 — might not be compatible with the latest Skyrim updates or mods.
- Only affects the rowboat, so it's a very niche cosmetic change.
For Skyrim players who appreciate environmental detail and want a more realistic rowboat without gameplay changes. If you're a completionist who loves overhauling every object, this is a must-have. Skip if you're looking for gameplay tweaks or if you rarely notice boat models.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since there's no ESP, just drop the meshes and textures into your Data folder or use a mod manager.
- If you use other boat mods, check load order to ensure this one's meshes take priority.
- This mod is purely visual, so it's safe to add or remove mid-playthrough.
