Tactically challenging, but I have not yet figured out how to participate in a regatta. It appears that this is designed to keep you in a match race, with few choices for boat selection and fewer still for location. I mostly race one-designs and this game ain't about that at all. Perhaps there will be something for us one-designers in the future.

First, my only compaint. The game arrived but did not include the code required to use the game. There was a blank section on the instruction card where the code should have been. An eamil to the company and their quick response solved the problem. I also contacted the vendor that sold the product, but never heard back from them.

The graphics are great, and the sailing physics seem pretty realistic.
