### 5/5 — Bon jeu

*2021-10-23*

Le jeu est bien il y a plusieurs bateaux mais au bout d’un moment c’est un peu répétitif.

### 3/5 — Gut aber zuviel Werbung

*2021-01-12*

Gutes Spiel 
Gute Grafik 
Zuviel Werbung

### 3/5 — Fun game, needs premium version

*2020-09-25*

This is a fun game that, I could see myself playing to relax. The controls are good, it’s fun and easy to play. Most other sailing games seem really technical and are trying to be real. I would never play those. 

Please add an in app purchase to eliminate ads, then it’d be worth 4 stars

### 5/5 — Great game, needs improvements

*2020-09-20*

I’ve been looking for a realistic sailing game with real sailing concepts for a while. And this game is one my favorites, But it could use some improvements. First of all it needs more content and also improved controls. Also I'd be happy to see boat stats and maybe even achievements. Looking forward to seeing some more updates!

### 5/5 — Nice

### 1/5 — Why

*2020-03-03*

This game does not have a way to get out of whirlpools and to get to the finish line I had to go through a whirlpool so I lost and I hate this ap the graphics are terrible to

### 1/5 — Nope

*2020-02-13*

Seriously, this game is one way or another. If you can get the hang of steering, your guaranteed a good game. If you can’t, don’t bother. THIS IS NOT WORTH YOUR TIME . I have played for 3 straight months and is not doing anything.

Quick sum-up. DO NOT GET THIS GAME

### 4/5 — Great game but just one thing

*2020-01-04*

I think that the developer of this game has done great but I think they need to add more content.
