A WebGL sailing game puts you at the helm of a 52-foot catamaran crossing a compressed 5,000-nautical-mile Earth.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-25 issue.

Field notes

The simulation exposes a compact set of sailing variables rather than reducing the experience to directional movement: wind angle, sail power, speed, heading, depth, and anchoring are all named in the interface or guide. Controls support both keyboard and on-screen input, while the camera ranges from deck level to 3 kilometres. The page also states that its coastlines use Natural Earth 1:110m public-domain data and that WebGL is required.
