Nice!

If you have a 3Gs iPhone and a sail boat this app is a must have. It works with your compass.

Great for students of sailing and people who have never been on a sailboat. If you don't fall into one of these categories, you probably won't get much out of this.

Basic basic basic

You know.... Heeling angle just might be an important addition. And the ability to set the wind speed and sail type. I know yall can do better. I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Great for teaching, and not a whole lot else.

This is a great app for someone to learn how to set sails for a particular wind condition. That's about it. For .99, I'd reccomend it to any newer sailor. I bought it to show people on our boat how wind reacts to sails. I'd like to see an option where you can remove the centerboard, and maybe add wind speed, and boat charicteristics that would affect heal. That'd be worth more than .99 though. Great app, very simple and does what it is suppossed to, very well.

I don't get it

Great for a beginer.

I loved this when I was just learning the basics! I tried to learn sail placment from books and the web but this really made it click. Also a great tool to show pasengers how to sail before they get aboard.

Nice app for the sailor that's still learning

I'm still learning to sail, and this app is a handy reference when I don't feel like I've got things trimmed properly.

Complete waste of money. The first app I found that isn't even worth $0.99.

SailSim Brilliant!

I teach sailing at the Collegiate level, this app is fabulous! My requests; wish I could save and load different boat settings. Would also like that to adjust some of the deep app system settings, like yacht or dinghy mode. Using boat data files could also begin a database of boats- add a module for your users to upload the data for you! Would also love a PC or Mac version so I could use it on the big screen in class! Maybe fix the wind and rotate the boat when there is no compass...

Great app. You got to play with the settings a bit to make it not auto reef, then it's a great app.
