Fun sailing game for between 2-8 adults or children. Uses a mixture of good luck, skill and chance as is the way with sailing. Object is to race over a set course, say Plymouth to Castle Bay in the Hebrides first home being the winner. On the way you'll have changing forecasts (32 real ones from a previous Round Britain come with the game), tide and Perils! to contend with. At the end of the race, which can last as you like it, from 10 minutes to 2 hours, you'll have found out amusing and interesting things about sailing offshore, all without necessarily having to know a thing about sailing. So Good sailing. Gybe-Oh!
Gybe-Oh! is printed on plastic, rolls up and comes with two unusual dice, eight boats and Gybe-Oh! and Peril! cards plus, of course, the forecasts. And it is all packed in a tube.
