Cruiseferry Silja Europa

Description
Silja Europa as a ploppable quayside asset.

Background
Silja Europa is one of the largest cruiseferries in the world. Currently the ship sails between Helsinki and Tallinn, carrying both passengers and cars across the Gulf of Finland. Earlier routes include Helsinki–Stockholm and Turku–Stockholm. The ship has capacity for 3 000 passengers and 400 vehicles (930 lane meters). The ship was launched in 1993.

Different versions
Silja Europa (this asset): building with landmark functions, placed on shoreline/quay.
Ship only: building without any function for decorative purposes.
Ship only, car deck: same as above but with lowered rear ramps.
Vehicle version, cruise ship: a functioning cruise ferry (but a bit smaller though).
Vehicle version, cargo ship: a functioning cargo ship.

Stats
This asset can be found at Public Transport menu under Ships tab. The asset needs to be placed on shore. The asset provides entertainment for your citizens.

Total triangle count for the model is 5228 and 754 for the LOD. The main asset is just a life ring rack, while the ship itself is a sub building.

Depending on what height your shoreline or quay is the ship might be submerged or hovering over water. You might want to use Move It! to adjust the height.

Screenshots
Screenshots have been taken with Daylight classic on. The asphalt is painted with Surface Painter. VIVID LUT is used. Map theme is Realistic Boreal.

If you use this asset in your city, I'd be happy to see some screenshots! I'll add the best shots to the asset page!

Seems very clear, now, actually ;)

Emiricol4Rl: I see it now that it might be bit confusing, but technically you do place the asset ON the quay and the ship appears next to the quay. If you can come up with a one-line description that makes more sense I'll gladly change it :D

I did read all that, but wasn't sure if building "on" a quay meant ON the quay. I can be way literal sometimes, but even so, it sure seems clear now that you said it. Lol. Thanks for replying!

Emiricol4Rl: if you read the description, it says there that there are 5 different versions of this ship. This one is a landmark building, it is supposed to be placed next to a quay. The ship itself should appear on water next to the shore when plopped.

Then there are two purely decorative versions without any function, one is similar to this one and the other has the rear ramps down. Then there are two vehicle versions, one as a cruise ferry and the other as a cargo ship.
