“I like the game/simulator, but I do wish there were an option for a smaller vessel in the 14-19ft range, so I can practice on the size sailboat that I can afford in real life.”
— a player, Steam review · 13 hrs played“Helpful to learn more about parts of a sailboat and how to use points of sail correctly. After taking ASA 103/104 classes there are a lot of overlaps with this sim, helpful for virtual practice.”
— a player, Steam review · 19 hrs played“Fantastic game. I am a VERY Novice sailor, so a basic game that teaches the ropes, no pun intended, is excellent. I recommend this one for anyone who has an interest in sailing!”
