Boats travel backwards.
 
When taking the boat from Butcher, you zone in from the side that you're *supposed* to come from if you are taking the boat from Freeport. Same thing for Freeport, you zone from the Butcher side.

NOTE: Veteran EverQuest players are not only likely to recall two boats, but Sister Isle being the first stop out of West Freeport. Though the second boat was not added until the Kunark era, the latter recollection is entirely correct: even though Antonica lies west of Faydwer, boats departing Butcherblock Mountains mysteriously traveled east to reach Freeport--the wrong direction. Project 1999 has corrected the direction of the boat so that it travels eastward to reach Faydwer from Antonica, and vice versa; this explains why Zach Reigh isle is the first stop out of Freeport, rather than Sister Isle as most remember.

Yeah I posted about this like a year ago when boats were implemented. Not sure why P99 would go the non-classic yet "accurate" route when they strive so hard to remain classic in every other regard.

Yes in some ways P99 is more classic than classic was.

True, but that's also like saying that every bug, exploit and whatnot, should be allowed on here until the timeframe of when they were fixed.

Also, are there 2 boats that run through OOT?

Chanus 01-27-2011 01:14 PM
Just one boat. The Timorous Deep shuttles are running, though... just can't go anywhere. And there's the ship past the docks that was added later for a monster mission, but it doesn't do anything.
