I created SailNavSim, a real-time sailing navigation simulator using real-world weather/ocean data where you can also set up races and play with/against others online: https://8bitbyte.ca/sailnavsim/ https://8bitbyte.ca/sailnavsim/
Some months ago, I had also shared it as a Show HN post [0], and I am thankful for the feedback received then, but I will be the first to say it's still not really ready for "prime time" despite continuous improvements since. Mostly I've been focusing a lot on the simulation and back-end side of things, but I do think it could benefit from a more modern UI (maybe someday).
Nonetheless, we have a small community of virtual sailors who regularly participate in races, and I could not be more grateful for all their feedback and help with this project so far!
