Before the opening of the Panama Canal, ships sailed from the
east coast to the west coast of North or South America via Cape Horn. They held
races from New York to San Francisco for those daring enough to test their
skills against the elements. Now playe rs can relive those races in this game.
Movement is governed by placing wind tiles along the route. Players can place
tiles to either help themselves or hinder their opponents. The first player who
passes three different nautical stations or pass es two stations and the finish
line wins the race and the game. May the winds always be at your back!
