Just got a copy of a game called Sail Simulator 5.
You can sail a Laser in it. Not a bad game tho I think the Laser in the game may be
a little 2 easy 2 death roll.
 
OK, been messing around with it a bit.

Final opinion is...
Its way 2 easy to death roll,
The boat always tips back over when you right it after a capsize
The combination of these two things will make you angry and stop enjoying life

COL (Chuckling out loud). Sorry for your pain, man. :(
 
A half serious and half facetious quesiton. Is the computer game any way, shape or form a substitute for actually getting out on the water and sailing?

Absolutely not. But it is fun and they have done quite a good job of simulating the way a Laser sails.
The boats quite responsive to Vang and other settings and behaves in waves in a similar fashion to the real thing.

It would make a good tool to help someone get their head around the different point’s of sailing as well.
I.e. Beating, Running, Reaching, Tacking and Gybing. Sailing by the Lee in the game is quite difficult.

It's a game, that's all...
