Hello Pioneers!
Here are this weekend's races!
If you missed yesterday's update, we opened up the race creation system to EVERYONE! Why not give it a spin if the races below don't take your interest? You can find everything you need to get started on our website here: https://www.sailawaysimulator.com/player-created-races/
You can also race in teams now! Richard explains how this works here:

You'll see from the update yesterday that we've fixed some issues with the Livery system, so why not dress your boat in one of the great designs in the Steam Workshop or make your own to race in!

Remember, if you don’t want to sail alone, you can look for a crew in the Multiplayer Forum, there are plenty of sailors looking for crew members or boats to sail with. Perhaps some of you more experienced sailors could team up with newbies and spread the knowledge?
Share your progress on Twitter and Facebook, and the Steam Forums - we'd love to hear what you think and how you got on!
Enjoy!
