📖 About This Game

A simple, fast-moving sailing race game, Yacht Race is notable for its extraordinary components: a beautiful oversized board representing a fictitious nautical chart, thick and elegant cards, and a set of weighted, felt-based brass sailboats designed to be picked up and moved about by their tall plastic sails. The game was originally published by a company called Saturday House. Parker Brothers purchased it from them and printed a new (virtually identical) edition.
