Addicting- lots of bugs- bugs lose customer tokens
War Joy
I love this game but there are so many things I did not notice at first that make it hard to get really good. I probably race 2 to 7 times a day if I’ve got 10 minutes. I lose about 10 tokens a day and sometimes more due to glitches(-$). Starting line needs fixed with penalties over the line early being to harsh to continue racing for a top 7 in a 10 minute race,(unless your on a foiling hull with good tactics). I can’t stop racing though, can’t wait for no bugs. Other than $costly bugs and jacktards who battle for 10th when I’m trying to drink beer, the racing is REAL⛵️⚓️???
Could Be Great But Set Up For Pay2Play Makes It Boring

Game is unstable loading so that is a big problem. This could be a great sailing game as there are so few available but you can buy so many helps that the AI is mostly sailing your boat. Get rid of VMG and time to line options to make it more challenging and level the playing field. Steering your boat correctly is the biggest challenge in racing. Would also be nice if you could pick one boat, e.g. Laser or that hydrofoiling cat and just race it without having to register yourself.
Four and a half really

I love sailing, and racing sailboats. Been looking for a good racing app, and this is the best out there. One request: Can you make a game mode without any of the race helps, or make specific events (e.g. all Official eSailing World Championship related events) with disabled race helps? It seems silly to me that players who pay for the subscription, or horde tokens to splurge on specific events, get an upper hand. It’s not a fair race unless you choose to pay the monthly subscription, and thus, this game is biased towards pay to win. Nobody should be able to perfectly time starts, have visibility on lay lines hundreds of meters out, automatically steer to the best possible VMG, or get special visibility on wind shadows and/or wind intelligence. Make it an even playing field. A racing game that gives a leg up to paying racers isn’t very palatable if you really want to foster competition. Also, expect frequent crashes and random game freezes. I’m rating this 3 stars until the level the playing field and fix the random bugs.
Keeps me sane in the off-season

Encourage bad sailing behavior??

I’m about two weeks into this game. This game has nothing to do with sailing or ethics... this game absolutely rewards people for “tackling” others. The game does zero to alert you that you’ll be penalized when this happens... because there is so little time. Maybe I’m just misinformed and this is how sailors fight each other. But if a boat turns hard off path and rams my boat, please explain why I get a penalty and they don’t. I’m not saying we are rounding a buoy or on tack... this is when we are in a dead heat and headed to finish, they hard cut to ram me. Trash game, played by trashy players.
Grow up

Everyone just does everything they can to get a penalty on the boat in front or next to them. No one races
