Boathouse

The Boathouse is the very first structure built in Colonia. It was constructed shortly after Colonia was created, in late November 2016. It was built by Leven, one of the original founders of Colonia. Built on stilts in a swamp biome, it is a one room structure built primarily with oak wood planks. It was designed as a refuge from the various mobs that would spawn at night. At the time, no beds had been built and the founding players had to endure through entire night cycles. Surrounded by water, the Boathouse was an ideal refuge. It served as a base for the 3 original Colonia founders CrownPrince, Leven and Eddiey. Once beds, better armor, weapons and tools were created, the founding players expanded beyond the Boathouse. A few weeks later, in December 2016, the first railway station, Boathouse Station, was built nearby and a railway was constructed south to the new home of CrownPrince. This was named Dark Oak Mountain Fortress (DOMF) and to this day is the principal residence of CrownPrince.
