International America’s Cup Class, Melges 24, Offshore Racer, Trimaran, Open 60 and even more are available as add-ons from unofficial sources. Single player allows competitions in both match racing and fleet racing, while multi player allows the above two and team racing. The races take place around a number of different types of course in a number of different settings ranging from Valencia, to Sydney, to Rio and many more.

Other features of the game are full weather with waves and built in wind shifts to affect tactics and a nearly full set of International Sailing Federation rules.
