1. The only thing needed to achieve 5 stars would be to add a frame of reference in the points of sail exercises where the vessel is always facing forward while wind direction shifts around you.Good graphics and lots of fun.
2. It's been well worth the price, and I've not even gotten into the fun sailing yet.As a beginning sailor, it is a great and fun way to solidify the points of sail terms into your head.
3. This is a good learning experience for novice sailors, however the app currently (as of 3.0.9) has a couple of issues: 1) at the end of the apparent wind module, tapping 'continue' does nothing, effectively leaving you to 'try again' or be stuck.
4. Maybe even just have the practice area 10 times bigger so that you can just have a leisurely sail.The app has good information but lacks realism in the sailing portions of the game.
5. I enjoy the app! I have only been through the first few stages, but it is pretty straight forward and user friendly, so far!Good learning tool.
6. ASA seems very responsive to these issues, so I hope I can bump the rating once they are resolved.Simple, instructive, decent looking, and oddly calming.
7. 2) When bringing up the in-module menu screen and tapping 'main menu' causes the app to freeze at the loating screen.
8. Makes me more aware of the look and efficiencies of sail trim on various points of sail.
9. Buying this program offers *1* boat, with the option to pay for a few additional, and pay for added dolphins.
10. Perhaps using keyboard controls as an option would be better.Decent primer, but *very* dishonest presentation.
11. This app has helped at least get a sense of some terminology, how wind affects a boat, and how to handle a boat.
