About this game

This completely redesigned 3D Version of the famous App "Dock Your Boat" offers even greater enjoyment of training because of its advanced user-friendly functions and beautiful artwork. The developers are passionate skippers by themselves and bring their sailing experience into the game.

The basic concept behind Dock your Boat 3D is the same as for the first 2D Version: The boat and harbour-simulator for docking and undocking under engine helps the skipper to improve her/his skills in safe manoeuvring of yachts in different environments. It also allows to handle lines and fenders. The wind strength can be set individually depending upon desired degree of difficulty.

Since version 2.3 you can also hoist the sails and the wind behind mountains is calculated correctly.

When subscribed you will get access to the scene editor and also be able to share scenes with your friends or students.

IMPORTANT:
If you do not have a recent device with strong CPU and GPU, let the app run for a minute. It will try to measure performance and reduce the ocean quality accordingly. Optionally, change parameters in the system settings inside the app.

Ratings and reviews

(Updated based on developer response.) Basic tutorial is free for evaluation. Probably easier to use on a tablet, I had difficulty tapping the tiny buttons on mobile. The controls for non-basic actions weren't entirely clear to me especially for pulling in lines, apparently there are tutorial videos that could help. I didn't pay for any content, and might try the game again sometime.

Interesting App and I usually go for the paid option, but this one is not ready. There are far too few simulations to warrant a yearly subscription of $13. Seems a one time pay at this point would be appropriate. UPDATE: Your analogy is flawed. My point is that your app is totally locked but it did peak my interest and would probably pay at a lower price point. But, I guess the 5 minutes I spent installing it and going through the tutorial will be it for me.

This app is primarily created by and for sail boat owners. It's NOT a game. It's simulator. And you can tune the performance of your selected boat to be very simmilar to the boat you actually have yourself. ......... The app allows you to get experience docking "your boat" in weather conditions that you would normally not dear to dock your real boat in. The app does a fantastic job of doing just that. Allowing you to get experienced docking your boat (and crashing it), saving you many1000 of pounds in real damages to your (and others) real boats. .... Yes the controls are not responsive if you use it on a mobile phone (small display), but probably works just fine on a pad or on a pc. And if like me you bought the licence on the mobile, you don't need to pay one more licence for the PC or the pad, as the app there can connect to the mobile (the developer calls that remote). ...... I can see there's several one star reviews, but when browsing through them I conclude that those reviews are not from the kind of users that this app is targeted for. And running a server to support such an app is not free, better pay a tiny bit than being bombarded with advertisements, of which this app is completely free. ........ As a simulation as close to the real thing as possible, this app does a marvelous job. It's outstanding, and there's nothing else out there even close. The app is a bit heavy to run, so needs a newer tablet with good performance, and it doesn't work on older Androids like 5 or 6.
