You are in the Barcelona World Race, you are helming an Open 60. Choose sails, and direction and go to the checkpoint.

It live racing, so you'll only notice movement over hrs/ over night Don't think this is like an arcade, 20 sec to go round the world |

Hmm - i guess its a simple fact of modern living - we all need instant gratification. If they put the wind speed up at least we could all start making some headway and get a flavour for what this is all about.

the system uses the gribb files for that day so they simply cannot "increase the wind" you are infact sailing in waht is live weather for that area for each day or as damn near close as you will get to it. ------------- http://www.noblemarine.co.uk/home.php3?affid=561 - Competitive Boat Insurance From Noble Marine FOR SALE: I14 2 Masts 2 poles 3 Booms, Foils Kites/Mains/Jibs too many to list. |
