Again I do all that. got it.

But what happens if you don't hit the check mark? does that mean your changes didn't take effect?

Yes , you need to hit the check mark to lock in changes

Then that's what happened. I was probably running at 4 knots all night.

Right, time to catch you buggers!

What Menzies is describing is called "heaving to"
I thought that was when you were upchucking your breakfast over the side.

Yes. If your testing a new heading and you move the heading indicator and don't like the results, clicking the X will put it back to your previous setting.

Good God, I just zoomed out and saw how long this race is going to be

I think were going to need our own forum

Has anyone bought any "Credits"? I don't plan to.

This thing is like crack lol.

Im not going to buy in but my understanding is that North sails bought "pro" sails for everyone that played so they could have thier logo on al the boats.

If you start buying credits, I bet it will be as expensive as a crack addiction! If you click on the boats, it will show you which options they bought. I clicked on all of the boats and nobody has anything other than pro sails. Can you win credits during the race?.. I don't want to get to leg 7 with no sails!

Not buying in if I can possibly help it, although temptation is there. You guys fess up and let us know if guys start jumping into the spending mode here.
I'm actually learning something here having never been a blow-boater.
