Using throttle with lines makes them stretch unrealistically. ### 4/5 — Please *2025-09-11, version 24.2* add shamrock v and c-dory yacht please ### 4/5 — Troppi acquisti nel gioco *2025-08-30, version 24.2* Miglior gioco di barche su mobile. Però troppi acquisti nel gioco vorrei che almeno l’editor sia senza acquisto. Spero che cambiate questa cosa. BELLISSIMO GIOCO COMUNQUE ### 5/5 — Great game *2025-08-23, version 24.2* Great game so far. But more boats would be fantastic. For example bigger yachts with bow and stern thruster or with azipods ### 5/5 — Amazing but problem with subscription *2025-08-21, version 24.2* I really like the game and how realistic it is but I wish there was a free trial, one time purchase because I can’t afford the subscription and more boats. Other than that I love the game! (P.s it would be nice if the ai boats had a wake and prop wash and some multiplayer would be cool) ### 4/5 — Niente male *2025-08-09, version 24.2* Gioco bello davvero carino ma ha delle cose da migliorare ad esempio l’aspetto delle barche e la grafica dei vari porti. Ma tante cose positive ad esempio i movimenti dell’acqua e la grafica sé si ha un buon Wi-Fi. ASSOLUTAMENTE TOGLIERE GLI ABBONAMENTI!!! Vi prego è senza senso per questo gioco, perché toglie divertimento siccome senza abbonamento puoi girare liberamente in una missione e nella seconda provare ad attraccare la tua barca però consigliato a quelli a cui piace navigare ### 4/5 — Ok *2025-08-08, version 24.2* Sehr gute Grafik und so aber leider muss man den Rest der Level kaufen. Trotzdem 4 Sterne ### 4/5 — Mise à niveau *2025-07-22, version 24.2* Serait-il possible d’ajouter de nouveaux bateaux comme des bateaux Cigarettes de tout taille et de tout type de bateau speedboats avec d’autres île et un mode multiplayer. Ma parti perso serait de pouvoir modifier nos bateaux, nos moteurs de toute catégorie du moins puissant au plus puissant avec un ajout de surplus de fonctionnalités sur le contrôle du bateau et autres avec , et sans oublier le Trim engine avec un système développé. Merci d’avance le simulateur est super cool et le seras encore plus avec de l’évolution ### 2/5 — Non riesco a pagare L upgrade *2025-07-21, version 24.2* Non riesco a pagare L upgrade ### 5/5 — Subscribe *2025-07-21, version 24.2* If only it’s a one time purchase that will be much better will definitely pay for it full price best sailing game ### 5/5 — Best in class *2025-05-26, version 24.2* Best realistic docking school. ### 5/5 — Das Spiel ist cool *2025-05-11, version 24.2* Ich wünsche mir nur mehr Updates ### 5/5 — È bellissimo *2025-04-23, version 24.2* È molto bello e realistico ### 5/5 — Really cool yacht sim! *2025-04-18, version 24.2* Thank you for good work! Big waves! Wind and waves separate settings. Lot of languages supported. Nice time setting. Yacht hull has interesting setting - nose wind resist, keel latitude. Sailing and engine support. Personally speaking I would prefer to see more sailing rigs - spinnaker, storm jib, trysail and etc. And dynamic weather and dynamic time of day setting. ### 5/5 — Helped me a ton *2025-03-30, version 24.2* After struggling to dock my new boat all summer, I knew I needed much more practice. This app actually helped me so much to practice different techniques, with different winds and currants, and different ways to use the securing lines. It is not perfect, but it has given me much more confidence and skills in the real world. ### 3/5 — Pls *2025-03-14, version 24.2* Well, add at least some kind of ship with a bridge and interior pls ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Nothing to do *2026-04-07, version 26.3* Can someone tell me otherwise but I couldn’t find the ‘open world ‘ part because it said I need a subscription can you add something for the free version ### 1/5 — Doofes Spiel *2025-01-19, version 24.2* Mann man muss die nächsten Level mit echtem Geld bezahlen und das nervt einfach ### 1/5 — I *2024-11-14, version 24.2* TARBIE ### 1/5 — 欲しい *2024-09-14, version 24.2* 日本語欲しい ### 1/5 — Fallo en la app *2024-09-01, version 24.2* La app ultimamente tiene el fallo de que no puedes hechar amarras no deja en ningun lado antes se podia tenias el chicote y amarrabas al muelle pero ultimamente le das al boton verde y no se engancha en ningun bolardo por lo demas todo bien ### 1/5 — Why it’s a bad game *2024-07-28, version 24.2* It’s a bad game because the camera movement does not stay still at all and it always goes way to far away from the boat and the boats are SOO hard to drive and the game is really laggy plus it has a tiny chide of boats. Don’t get this app it just takes up so much data and WiFi usage. It crashes al the time aswell so it’s hard to even play the game. And the engine noises sound very fake and horrible. And when you press stop the tutorial it never stops it and there are also lots of adjustments in settings that don’t even work and the steering on all the boats are rubbish I turned left with the yacht and it when right. ### 1/5 — Liked it at first *2023-08-01, version 22.4* I liked it at first but then it charged me $10 to keep playing! Do not download if you don't wanna pay $10/month ### 1/5 — Badddd *2023-03-21, version 22.4* Le pongo una estrella a pesar de que es el mejor simulador de iOS debido a que no es gratis y a que hay pocos barcos debería ser gratis y haber modo premium de pago con un Mega yate o así ### 1/5 — Don’t. Just don’t. Not worth it! *2023-03-08, version 22.4* Subscription to access any more than the tutorial. Greedy developer that wants to milk your money. Keep looking, save your money. ### 1/5 — Subscription? No thanks *2023-01-22, version 22.4* I’d buy it as a one-off, absolutely, but I’m not subscribing to something this. As a business model it just smells of cynical cash grab. You’d have to have a certain kind of product to make a subscription right, and this isn’t it. More importantly, the price would quickly be massively exorbitant given what it is. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Very good but add more boats *2026-08-13, version 26.5* One of the best mobile boat game I’ve ever seen but it’s just they need to add bigger boats ### 5/5 — Would love to play more scenes *2026-07-31, version 26.5* I would love to buy more scenes and practice levels. I don’t have the patience or skills to build them myself. I want to keep practicing but I got bored with the same levels :) ### 5/5 — Very realistic *2026-07-23* It helped me a lot with docking a real sailboat. I understand that I could build my own scenes but I’m willing to pay for access to more scenes. Is there a list of PIN numbers I could use to subscribe to more scenes? **Developer response:** Thank you for the rating. The PIN is more for sharing scenes between friends or students from a sailing school. ### 5/5 — Great games *2026-06-05, version 26.3* Wish you could do more stuff in the free version wish there were more boats maybe like a fishing boat but great game ### 5/5 — Tide *2026-04-17, version 26.3* A working tide system would be great with marinas that you can only enter at high tide etc ### 5/5 — Super Realistic! More scenes?? *2026-03-26, version 26.3* Love this app!!! I’m actual ocean boater and the realism is incredibly accurate. When get we expect more scenes?? ### 5/5 — Great Game *2026-02-20, version 26.3* The physics are pretty close to docking an actual boat, by far the closest you will find on a phone game. I spent money for the paid version to throw some money at the developers to enhance the game, particularly new boats. There are only 3 boats to choose from and that is the only downfall of the game. Some boats are a little too responsive vs real life, but those are the ONLY complaints. Great job to the team and hopefully we will see some big updates in the future. ### 5/5 — More boats *2025-12-21, version 24.2* Please add more boats to drive because I get bored sometimes with only three boats to drive it’s still a five star game! ### 5/5 — Add more boats and JetSkis *2025-10-19, version 24.2* It would be a lot more fun if you add more boats and some JetSkis to learn how to dock different stuff on water while also having some fun ### 5/5 — Great for sailors entertainment *2025-09-27, version 24.2* I love it 😆 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
