MV Nicolaos is a crude oil tanker build in 2010 and active to this day. The VS model is excellent and free. It was provided by Commander Nihil at Virtual Tech Art Design: https://www.virtualtechart.com/home/files/file/203-mt-nicolaos/

This add-on module provides a navigation bridge that is essential if you want to get the most out of this beautiful ship. It also provides optimization for VSNG.

This add-on features:
- a navigation bridge( anim.x + pictures + instruments & panels folders)
- new lighting including repositioned runing lights, source lights for the main deck (lights.cfg), adjusted mesh lights (lights.x)
- adjusted mooring lines and anchor chains (cables.x)
- start and stop sounds
- new configuration based on real ship characteristics fully loaded, tweaks only on body drag coefficient "body_cd" (vehicle.cfg) and performance profile (profile.csv);
elements.cfg file  consistent with the latters
- adjusted views (views.cfg)

2 options are available:
A- fully loaded ship
B- light ship (full displacement at 213% loading)

The ship's behavior is almost identical in every case. Inertia and acceleration appear realistic. It takes a few minutes for the ship to reach a cruising speed of 11kt, not to mention the time needed to reach the maximum speed of 23kt (officially estimated at 24kt)!

You just need to copy the files in the ship's folder (you can insert only the elements you want, as they are independent).
