I have been revising some of the older ships that I want to include in my mod. This ship is an 8,000 ton old-fashioned steam tanker based on the "Dixie Arrow" (sunk 1942) and her sister ships. Originally I built it more than a year ago - this is the third version of it.

Installation is very easy, but please read the readme. All text on the hull and funnel is mirrored correctly. You will see it ingame if you have generic entries for American oil tankers. To my knowledge these ships were only used by one company so the civilian skins are pretty similar, but there is some variety in hull markings.

I will create a batch of camoflage skins for it in the next several days.

EDIT: Version 1.1 has been released. EQP files have been modified to stop the crashes on some installations. Also includes various improvements and a pack of camoflaged skins. Download this instead of v1.0.

EDIT: Version 1.2 has been released. Camo skin #5 has been repaired in this version. Download and use this instead of all earlier versions.

EDIT: v 1.21 (resolves file paths problem):
