  • eSail is a realistic sailing learning app, in this video I struggle to get the boat out of the harbour and then tack (with fenders) out the bay. This is the best app I know of to learn the details of sailing a big boat where crew and winches are a thing.

      Have you seen, Marineverse Cup on quest? Not super realistic but good muti crew multiplayer racing in VR.

    I see no side wind. So may be the propeller ?
    Anyway, the standard manouver would be.
    Let go all except the fore spring.
    Hold spring.
    Rudder easy easy to starboard
    Dead slow ahead.
    The boat will turn around the cleat.
    Once the stern is clear enough off the other ship.
    Rudder hard to port.
    Engine slow astern.
    As she seems to fit a left handed prop, as far as its rotating, she will go to starboard until enough speed is achieved. The only way to avoid that is by stopping the engine. Its a matter of finding a balance between engine/speed/manouverhability by only applying short engine strokes.

    This looks pretty cool. I’m looking to learn how to sail. Looks like a good platform to learn the basics.

    this works flawlessly on linux as well with proton, either on steam or lutris. actually during the lutris install it automatically chose the right version of proton. the games does freeze if you have 'safe eyes' program running too, so if u have safe eyes, quit it. i've had no problems with this sailing simulator. running ubuntu unity with kde plasma.

    I think that's because the double overhead under spline was desynchronised from the Master navigation system

    when is there a ship game carrying passengers from one area to another... the result of passenger income can be the addition of passenger ship accessories and also the dock..

      @Cacheola Yes, absolutely best way to learn! I looked at this sim as I habe a regatta crew of noobs each year and its preferable if they try this sim at least first

    you should have left the bow spring line on, forward thrust rudder to starboard would have moved the stern to port. then reverse out.

      Yes thanks, I know but leaving a spring on wasn't an option in the app.

    hey man! great video! Just looking for some advice if you wouldn't mind helping? I want to learn how to sail, so i'm going to go for a RYA "start yachting" course soon, but wondering if you think esail or marineverse would be a good idea beforehand to get some basic knowledge? And which application would you recommend? Thanks in advance!

    • @shipbuildingx
      @shipbuildingx  3 месяца назад +1

      RYA is the way to go, and using a sim/game before doing the course will really help those more complex situations feel more easy when the time comes. Ideally you would use both apps, Marineverse is great for learning the basics of sailing as it has good basic tutorials and is of course fully immersive if used with VR, its also the best app to simulate racing, when you do multiplayer IMHO. eSail is more important if you want to do big boat sailing as you learn how to put sails up and reef them and the use of the winches and lines for docking.

      @@shipbuildingx thanks so much for your reply I really appreciate that! In that case, I'll download marineverse on my quest 3 and also get esail on steam too before booking in for my RYA. Cheers :)

    It's a good trainer for like the basics n stuff, but the controls make it a lot harder than rl even. And the game is empty.

    If they could make it more "realistic" it would be worthwhile, it's just a concept for some basics.
