(Jun 8th 2021) eSail Ltd. has today released a new Beta of eSail Sailing Simulator V2. This new version is available to all eSail V1 users at no extra charge and you can start trying it out now. New features include: [list] [*] Asymmetric spinnaker which can be used from a beam reach to running downwind. [*] Multiplayer mode including a simulated VHF radio with 19 channels for chatting with other sailors. [*] Multiplayer challenges including races and ‘passages’. [*] You can also create your own courses and challenges and share them with friends. [*] We have also improved the boat detailing and added numerous other small features such as making it easier to see the status of your lines and prop walk. [*] We are adding a number of new languages, but please note that new features are not fully translated, so it is best to keep the Beta in English for now. [/list] To get these new features simply purchase eSail. Once you have installed you can switch to the V2 Beta if you want to try it out. To swap to the V2 Beta: 1. Right click on eSail in your Steam client. 2. On the drop down menu click 'Properties' 3. Click on the BETAS tab. 4. Select the v2_Beta from the drop down list. Please provide your feedback in the Beta Forum. NOTES: Languages are still a work in progress. There may be gaps in any language apart from English which should be complete.
