- Custom sail boat furniture: You’ll get a miniature sail boat decor item you can place in Nikki’s home, which plays a soft sea shanty when you interact with it.
I was shocked at how generous the rewards are, especially the premium tickets. Most collectible sets only give 5 or 10 tickets max, so this set is a huge exception. If you’re trying to save up for a limited outfit set you’ve had your eye on, this is one of the fastest free ways to earn extra tickets without grinding daily quests. You can claim these rewards as soon as you interact with the 7th sail boat, no extra quest steps required, so you’ll get your items immediately.
Common Mistakes to Avoid When Searching for Sail Boats
I made so many silly mistakes when I was first searching for these, so I’ve noted the most common ones to save you time. First, don’t confuse intact sail boats with the broken boat debris scattered across most beaches. Intact sail boats have a bright blue hull, white sails, and a small glowing interact icon above them, so they’re easy to tell apart once you know what to look for. Broken boat debris doesn’t count toward the collectible set, so don’t waste time interacting with every half-sunken boat you see.
Another common mistake is ignoring small hidden coves that don’t show up on the main map. 3 of the 7 sail boats are tucked into coves that only appear on your mini map when you’re within 100 meters of them, so you’ll want to walk the full length of every coastal region instead of just fast traveling to marked points. If you’re having trouble finding the last one, check the tiny unmarked island off the west coast of Bright Sand Beach – I spent three hours looking for that one, because it doesn’t show up on the main world map at all. Make sure you have the glider ability unlocked before you head to Starfall Island, because the last sail boat is on a cliffside that you can’t climb up to without gliding over from a higher peak.
Step-by-Step Route to Collect All Sail Boats in 30 Minutes Or Less
If you don’t want to wander aimlessly, you can follow this optimized route that I tested four times to make sure it’s as fast as possible. It skips all unnecessary detours and lets you hit every spawn point in order without backtracking. I did this run in 27 minutes on my alt account, so it’s totally doable in under half an hour even if you stop to pick up other collectibles along the way.
Start at the Bright Sand Beach south fast travel point. Walk north along the shoreline, and you’ll find the first two sail boats in open sandy spots within 5 minutes of the fast travel point. Keep going north until you hit the hidden cove at the northern end of the beach, where the third sail boat is tucked behind a group of palm trees. Next, fast travel to the Misty Cove east fast travel point. Head west along the shore, and you’ll find the fourth and fifth sail boats in small coves along the way. Once you have those, fast travel to the Starfall Island south fast travel point. Climb the nearest tall peak, glide over to the northern cliffside to get the sixth sail boat, then swim out to the tiny unmarked island 200 meters off the east coast to get the seventh. That’s it! You don’t need to fight any enemies or complete any puzzles to reach any of the sail boats, so this is a great collectible set to farm even if you’re a new player with low level outfits.
At the end of the day, hunting for all 7 intact sail boats Infinity Nikki has to offer is one of the most rewarding small side activities in the game. The rewards are generous, the route is simple, and you don’t need any high level gear or completed story chapters to finish it. I’ve recommended this collectible run to all my new player friends, and every single one has been happy they took the 30 minutes to do it.
