Opensimworld.com is a great way to promote all the wonderful creations we can find in different grids and I think this is the purpose of this website. Promoting creativity, giving people the ability to explore and see what others create. This is why Im sponsoring this website with advertisements and announcements. Lately I observe this place is filled with comments of personal kind , ( some would call it drama ). I am sure the majority here visiting this website for the same reason as I do are not happy with the continuously posted remarks of personal kind ( and disrespectful) . I wish to ask all who use this wonderful website to consider , where it was built for. If this website will become a gathering place for people who wish to display their frustrations, it will chase away others who are willing to invest in this medium. Please take this in consideration before you post ( and please use English if you can, this is an international community)

Yes , a market to show off your creations!

A tall ship battle , ships with crews ! It's great fun. This is last ship standing ( mine :) ) burning! No cargo to steal, all was burned ! With many thanks to the Catronian Archipelago group members to make this event exciting.

Kitely Winter fair setup. Merchants from all grids welcome. Opening 15 dec with DJ Melanie Auxifur!

Come sail your own historical ship, free!! We made a ship ( see pic ) in a rezzer for all who wish to learn to sail the historical ship Statenjacht Utrecht. When you board the ship, a HUD for navigation will attach automatically on your avatar so you can start immediately testing the sails and the cannons! More people can rezz ships, so you can take your friends and have a test battle as well. You will find the rezzer by walking through the " sailing school " teleporter at our landing point, and you will find your way. There is a book close to the rezzer you can use as a tutorial , but we also arranged a personal teacher for you: IM in Kitely captain Snoots Dwagon for an appointment , he will lead you to a higher level in the sailing battles! Many thanks to Christine Nyn who made the rezzer for us. ( the ship flies a white flag, so no other captains will attack you! )
Built as a city town house: A very realistic model from the city hall in Wernigerode Germany, one of the oldest one in Europe. Great fun to make such an old town house ( built in 16 th century ) into the virtual world in one of our ports.

Trouble Ahead : You can find this building at: grid.kitely.com:8002:Catronian Archipelago Please use the teleporter to Port of Morgan to see it in world. Soon available on Marketplace 1 years ago
Welcome at our 11 cities skating tour !

In the Netherlands is a tradition in winter, when there is a long cold freezing period . They have the " eleven cities tour" ( Elfstedentocht) , a 200 km skating route that leads to eleven cities in the northern part of the Netherlands. It's very popular and the Dutch see it as an honor when you are able to skate the whole route in one day and get the " Friesche elfstedentocht " trophy as a reward.

We made a wonderful skating route for you with eleven checkpoints named to all the cities. When you find them all, you will earn the famous " eleven city tour cross "a trophy that is famous for all skaters all over the world ! The stamps , given to you at every checkpoint are the original stamps used in the tour in RL. Collectors items!

* Found all the stamps? Make a notecard , drag your stamp textures on it and sent it to Trouble Ahead.
Yay, when sending your full stamp notecard , you finished the tour and the famous "Elfstedenkruisje" ( trophy) will be sent to you, with some themed presents as well.

When you explore the place, you can find a Christmas market.

Find us in Kitely s main website " Catronian Archipelago" and use the teleporter near the landing point.

Creating wonderful places to live and sail ...

Now we all are in the holiday mood, we offer you a winter adventure.
The ELEVEN CITIES SKATING TOUR. SKATE AND COLLECT STAMPS, WIN A PRIZE.

A skating tour , 12 sims huge , leading you through a wonderful winter landscape with some nice details underway, like cabins for a rest ( or a cuddle ), Icy waterfalls, animals, and more surprises.

How does it work?

Hop : grid.kitely.com:8002:Catronian Archipelago

On the landing place a teleport sign will lead you to the winter fair/ skating tour start point.
Find the information board. It gives you historical information about this funny Dutch tradition, and an opportunity to collect all the original stamps in this tour and win the 11 cities trophy , which in the Netherlands is like being a local hero.

You will get a map/ texture and when opening your world map, you will be able to locate all the checkpoints by comparing the map with your position on the world map. We introduced this bc too many people got lost on track and miss stamps !

Drag all your stamp textures on a notecard and sent it to me. You will be rewarded . I will mention names of the people who are in the "hall of fame" in this thread.

Oh, and don't forget to visit the market with all its freebees !

Happy skating!

We announce that we made a connection with the Vibel grid , " Neiferleaf " owned by Roland Francis.
Catronian Archipelago's members visited his sims and were very enthusiastic about theme and landscaping and we decided to connect the lands with teleporters on each others landing points. The purpose of this connection is to share traffic and make people with similar interests on different grids aware about the posibilities of role-play, and we also want to organise events that will take place on both grids. More information about this later.
You can easely find the gate to Neiferleaf on Catronian Archipelago 's landing point , a gazebo that will teleport you over or try

grid.vibel.eu:8002:Neiferleaf

Enjoy the medieval theme, the wonderful forests and the great riding horses you can use to explore the lands. It's big, so take your time.
We are grateful Roland participates in this and work with us. For a fast impression on website:

Catronian Archipelago has a new judge and major in its new city hall. . Please read below in case you need defense: ========================
CATRONIAN BOOK OF COURT PROCEDURE


Article 1
Dwagons are now offishully recognized as "Honorable Residents" and not as pirates and privateers as previously rumored. Snoots Dwagon shall be known as "His Honor" unless specific activities obviously indicate otherwise.

Article 2
Judge Snoots Dwagon's authority and judgment is conferred upon him for as long as he is willing to take the Honorable task of being Judge and Major of Catronian Archipelago. No other person shall take this role without The Honorable Dwagon's consent. This is a Title for Life. (Note that Dwagons are immortal, so that's a long time.)

Article 3
No Judge shall take a bribe of any kind from any entity, be it Navy, Seaman, Merchant or otherwise. However, donations are gladly accepted to the Orphaned Dwagons Fund for the protection of this rare and valuable species.

Article 4
The judge's judgment stands as given. No appeal is possible. However reconsideration of sentence may be possible upon donations to the aforementioned Orphaned Dwagons Fund.

Article 5
All witnesses on all cases are obliged to give him their honest stories whether true or not, swearing to say nothing but the truth by their hand (or paw) on the book of Catronian law, which doesn't currently exist but still the thought counts. Any law which is deemed to not exist at the time of Court and Judgment may be made up on the spot by the Honorable Judge.

Article 6
Accused ones can be defended by so called lawyers, attorneys and shysters, especially if they are too drunk to present their own defense or the evidence too clear and excessive for them to otherwise defend themselves.

Article 7
Judgment may be debated, discussed and cursed so long as members of the court bring enough rum for other participants participate equally. However the wisdom of Dwagon Judgment shall not be challenged nor doubted as Dwagons have two brains and the Judge has already thoroughly discussed the matter with himself.

Article 8
Any participant of court who proves unruly shall be removed forcibly from the courtroom, upon which they may pay the Judge to re-enter the court should they so desire.

Article 9
Punishments will be related to the deed of the crime, worse if the Honorable Judge is in a bad mood. Rumors that judgments may be tempered or lessened with bribes of gold, rum or cookies are emphatically denied.

Article 10
The Judge is allowed during his session of the court to use all fluid drinks that make his speech more sharply and his judgments more colorful.

Article 11
Captain Snoots Dwagon is permitted to change articles of the book of law on his own authority, and will announce any changes in Catronian Groups notices when he gets around to doing so. Any announcements not made shall be stated during or following a trial and shall be retroactive in nature.

Article 12
Law and order shall be the rule of the day. This applies to Navy, Pirates, Privateers, Captains, Gunners, Seamen, Merchants, Wenches, Swashbucklers and Scallywags regardless of race, creed or species.

Participants in the court are encouraged to wear flame-retardant materials.

-- This concludes the Catronian Book of Court Proceedure --

This document was written by educated professionals to be the core of Catronian Law and has not been at all influenced by Dwagons in any way.

--o--
To find the city hall and contact the Major: please use the TP to Port of Morgan, at the end of the docks you find Honorable Snoots Dwagon's residence.

If you visit our sims, you will find a giftbox with the Niitti Bwind scripted boat. Its Bwind scripts are full perm. Such a cute little sailing vessel! If you have one, use your Kitely avatar.

UHHH !!! Someone is asking docking fees at the new Port of Morgan! Good there is a bank to loan some RP money.. we need it for bribing, tax, tips and RP shopping of course ..

Great st Patrick s day !!

At our world Catroninan Archipelago we made a sailing race track.
For all sailors who like a little bit competition and excitement, we made maps and HUDs for navigation that will lead to 9 different turning points. Also the track is easy to find for captains during the race with huge steampunk balloon signs , showing you the way.
This sailing track is originally made for the Friday sailing event, but it's open for all players who like to rezz ships and give it a try.
( please clean up when you leave)
So take your friend, or group, and organise your race!
Catronian Archipelago can be found : grid.kitely.com:8002:Catronian Archipelago You will land at the docks. Near landing place, you find a life buoy that gives you HUD, information and map to get started.

All who love sailing are welcome, no matter if you sail Bwind ships, Kayaker Magic scripted ships or SPD scripted. The track is open for the coming weeks and maybe longer on request. If you don't have a ship of your own, ships are at the docks in rezzers.

If you want to join the Friday evening event (12.30 PM viewer time ) , we only allow SPD scripted ships for the sailing race.

Cheers and have fun.

it is a pity when people allow those who are abusive in private to hide that, and see no reason for that to be brought into the light where it belongs. Protecting such abusive people adds nothing to this site here, pity.
