The only downside of this amazing sailing simulation is that it is not a multihull racing game. The Volvo Ocean Race Game lets you skipper your own yacht around the world. It uses real time weather data and forecasts and you make the decisions whether to jibe or tack – and even which sails to use. The best is that you can play against 150,000 other gamers around the world and track your friends. The real fleet of Volvo Ocean Racers is of course also viewable. But while they are battling it out in the freezing Southern Ocean we can sail from the comfort of our armchair. Look out for our own boat named “Aeroyacht” and send us a message. The race is on !
