  1. Advantages of tidal waters, refreshing the antifouling in 4 hours? What design is this, AKPyrate? Looks a little British, if you donĀ“t mind me saying this. I am a little familiar with Scandinavian designs, since I am mostly sailing the Baltic (spent some time in world wide shipping on Bulker, though). Last year I spent 4,5 month sailing the round trip around the Baltic sea and had a great time with my second home, an Ohlson 29...
  2. I bascially tried to forumulate the same idea in another thread, so I agree with OP... http://forum.game-labs.net/index.php?/topic/3580-wind-current-draft-and-ship-behaviour/?p=95030 And I think it should actually not be too difficult and a simple relation between wind vector and vessel type should be sufficient to implement a lee way drift. In combination with implementation of the apparent wind, this would be really outstanding for this game genre and not to difficult to realise. For simplification the factor for the vessel type could a constant, even though it depends on really many variables. This constant gets multiplied with the wind vector and you get an additional movement vector for the vessel independent from the direction of the bow.
