From BoardGameGeek
In this strategic boat race, you and another player compete to be the first person to get all seven boats across the finish line. This won't be easy though, because you'll soon realize that every voyage comes with risk! During the race you'll be trying to catch the wind, avoid tie-ups, and dodge boat collisions. Remember that you're always safe in Harbor, but if the Harbor's full and you get bumped, you have to go all the way back to launch!
