Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Average
Can be a fun game to play occassionally, but gets boring after an hour or so.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - I like the multi hull!

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Learn how to sail without going through much of the work!
This game is a great on value and good otherwise. The graphics paint quickly and the realism of the experience - changing sails, direction, etc - really can teach you some of the basics of sailing without actually being out on the open water. Overall, a good game.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - I played it twice, then got board
I bought this game because I loved virtual skipper 1. I have not taken anywhere near the enjoyment out of this game. I have a fast computer with a gig of ram and still have performance issues with the graphics.

The thing that makes me the angriest about this game is the disk copy protection. It starts up and goes into a disk protection check. This security feature means it takes the game 5 min+ to start up. By the time that it finally starts up I have normally found something ... Read More
