Very Cool, but keep improving! – Virtual Regatta Offshore Review

I have enjoyed the thought process and strategies involved in participating. I like that you can compare yourself to the Volvo Boats, your own club racers, city, state, nation and world. I like showing friends the 3D pics of the boat in action. My class thought I was navigating a real boat in the night view when down under. The algorithms need a little work. I have seen some boats sail right over islands with no repercussions while I have been set back on shore after clearing islands costing me 2000 places at times. I realize it is all just fun but when you invest some time into your race it is a bummer to be screwed up by a computer glitch. Still fun to play and it is such a metaphor for life in so many ways.
