eSail 3.2.09 fixes these bugs: · Tides inside eSail not consistent with the tide tables. This was due to changes in the sky, sun and moon positions. · Tide tutorials. Sometimes the boat would just appear in open ocean. · Second tide tutorial was set to a time of 8:30 not 15:30 which meant the tide first went in the wrong direction. · The bay just South of Safety Bay had 2m spot depths which wer…
Thank you to all our contributors for your ideas and feedback! (Note these improvements were made across versions 3.2.04 to 3.2.08) · Fixed the upgrade path when upgrading from V1 to V3. This was leading to a frozen first splash screen. · I have added resizer handles to the instrument panel and the 'plan' panel. · I have been doing work to make sure the boat and anchor behave properly after res…

This update provides an agreement checkbox, so that the user needs to accept that eSail is not a replacement for professional training by a qualified instructor. In addition we point out limitations - we cannot simulate the physical and mental demands of real world sailing. Also we highlight that no simulator can always replicate real world physics, especially as all boats behave differently. T…
This small update fixes an issue in the Mooring Sandbox (eSail Pro). There were hidden boats which caused some very strange effects when trying to moor. Apologies to anyone who had problems mooring before this was identified!
This new update is designed to help novice sailors, as well as fix a few bugs. 1. Added a Points of Sail diagram. This can be accessed from the 'Adjusting the Mainsail' tutorial. (In V3 all learning resources will be accessible from a central location.) 2. Previously it was easy to accidentally click on the sail bag in the cabin and deploy the asymmetric without even knowing it. So we have now…

We have a new test release which is the foundation ready for a new eSail Pro DLC. NOTE 1: This test does not contain any eSail Pro functionality. It should be largely the same as the previous release, except for certain messages to indicate eSail Pro is required for features. NOTE 2: The DLC is in English only to begin with. 1) What happens when you click on the nozzle of the fuel pump? (Port F…
This small update has a new method to try to prevent drop-outs in multiplayer. We have also increased the screen size for keyboard shortcuts to enable longer descriptions in German and Italian. Note that this multiplayer update is not compatible with older versions, so it is possible that boats may not be visible while users update. Any feedback would be very much appreciated!
This new version brings you: 1. A fix to stop out of range data causing issues for all users in multiplayer mode. 2. A new steam ship (The Aurora) is running between Water Head Islands and Port Fogarty in Southern Shearwater Island. As this is a lot of water to cover when testing any sightings (or even better screenshots) would be much appreciated. 3. An ensign flag is now on the backstay. This…
