Overview

What ABG knows about this game

A yacht race in which you manipulate the 6 lighthouses to sail your ship around the two buoys and back to the start. You have 9 action points to spend on rotating the beams of light, shifting the towers and moving your yacht. You move your ship to the places where the beams of light intersect as your points spending allows. If you can't move as you wish, your boat drifts one space.
