eSail Sailing Simulator PC Game 2022 review:
This is not the only sailing yacht simulator, but apparently the best one with an emphasis on simulation and real yachting training.
With eSail you learn how to raise the mainsail, tack, gybe, reef the sails, moor, and anchor the boat. It’s not just a sailing game, it’s a fully-featured sailing simulation that should leave you with some understanding of how to pilot a real yacht once you master it.
Once you have learned the ropes you set out into the open waters surrounding the Shearwater Islands and seek out features such as the wreck of Princess Zara. You can also take on challenges, such as sailing races, treasure hunts, passage planning, and collision avoidance in obstacle courses.
Pros of eSail Sailing Simulator:
- Sailing controls. Use your virtual crew to take full control of sails, control lines, winches, and travelers. Practice your winch technique and learn how to operate cleats and jammers safely. You can also use AutoSail mode to make things a little easier when you are starting!
- Anchoring. Think about the weather and check the conditions of the sea bed – sand, weed, or rocks? – before deciding how much chain to let out. Get it wrong and your anchor will drag!
- Mooring. Decide your best approach to the quay, step off the boat and secure your mooring lines. You can then opt to set up spring lines and even slip lines to help depart your mooring without embarrassment!
- Charting. To the best of our knowledge eSail is the only simulator with a charting module that represents paper-based charts. Use tools like dividers, plotters, and pencils to plot your course, while looking out for lights from buoys and lighthouses to check your position.
