“If you live a life of make-believe, your life isn't worth
anything until you do something that does challenge your reality. And to me,
sailing the open ocean is a real challenge, because it's life or death.” Morgan Freeman
Sailing is
a passion bordering on an obsession for many both in RL and SL alike. The sailing community in Second Life is a tight
knit family who has done a phenomenal job of making sailing possible in SL.

Avid SL
sailors and social sailors alike may be interested to know that at the beginning
of October the Seychelles Isles (formally the Irish Estates) made a historic
move to a new location which connects directly with the Mainland. This new location merges with the Coastal Waterway near the
Northeast outflow of Dire Strait, offering residents of the estate many more open
water sailing opportunities.
From that location it’s a quick sail North to Corsica, South to Blake Sea, or
Southwest to Bingo Strait, Nautilus City, and Satori continent.

It was in October of 2011 that IrishGent Resident launched
Irish Estates, a residential community in Second Life. This estate includes
both custom built and resident owned homes, along with extensive lush
landscaping. All sims are surrounded by water with numerous amenities for the
residents including: a yacht club, a dance club, regular entertainment with
both live and dj music, and a sim dedicated to surfing with complimentary
surfboards.

At the time founder
and creator of the estate, IrishGent (a keen sailor himself both in RL and in
SL) stated, “I am so pleased to be able to offer the residents of Second Life a
home that is truly a community. From the moment I came to Second Life I dreamed
of building a community. And, to see it come alive is truly a rewarding
experience.” And now almost two years later, IrishGent and his management team
are proud to announce a name change for the estate to the Seychelles Isles.
IrishGent explains his rationale behind the name change “I, along with my
management team, decided that we wanted a name that better encapsulated our
vision of what the estate encompasses and the result is…. Seychelles Isles. The
Seychelles out in the real world are a magnificent collection of islands,
surrounded by turquoise seas, exquisite coral beds and unblemished sun kissed
beaches. You will agree with me that Ericaanne Hastings, our resident
landscaper and designer, has done a fine job of replicating paradise on our
estate.”
Fulfill your
fantasy, allow yourself to transcend pleasure in an exotic island atmosphere,
come and live in exclusive luxury in harmony with nature – your private piece
of paradise in Second Life.
