Boat docking: Captain Vasko

Every skipper has scraped a gelcoat backing into a tight gap. Here you can practise until it's second nature, before it's your charter deposit on the line.

Boat Docking: Captain Vasko is a top-down docking simulator. You stand at the helm of a cruising yacht and bring her stern-to, alongside or through a swing bridge into harbours along the Croatian coast, with a real wheel, a throttle lever, a bow thruster and the wind always working on the boat.

REAL BOAT HANDLING
• The boat carries momentum, drifts downwind when stopped and loses rudder grip as speed builds
• Prop walk kicks the stern to one side when you go astern, so you plan every turn
• Gusts push the bow, currents carry you sideways, and shallow water can scrape your keel
• Instruments show heading, speed, wind, depth under the keel and rudder angle

ELEVEN HARBOURS DOWN THE ADRIATIC
Start with two calm warm-up berths, then work your way through Luka Prvić, the old Submarine bunker, Punat, Sali Port, Hramina Murter, Biograd na Moru, Marina Piskera, Dubrovnik, Osor's swing bridge, Komiža and Marina Palmižana. Each harbour adds something new: a crosswind, a river current, a narrow channel, a corridor one boat-length wide.

CHOOSE YOUR CONDITIONS
Dock in a flat calm while you learn, then turn the wind up to light, moderate or strong. If you want more time at the helm, the captain offers two extra practice berths.

STARS, COINS AND A BOAT TO LOOK AFTER
Dock clean and fast for three stars. Pay your berth fees with coins earned by docking well and with daily coins for every day you play. Watch the hull: every bump goes on the boatyard bill.

YOUR SKIPPER, CAPTAIN VASKO
The old captain and his parrot show you the helm on your first day, cheer your best dockings and never let a bad approach go unmentioned.

NO SAILING EXPERIENCE NEEDED
The warm-ups teach the wheel, the lever and the thruster step by step. Experienced skippers can go straight to the harbours and the stronger winds.

FREE TO PLAY, NO ADS
Every harbour can be reached without paying. If the game helps your docking, you can support it with optional one-time tips that add coins, or join the captain's crew: a monthly subscription with coins every month and bigger docking rewards. Subscriptions renew automatically until you cancel them in Google Play.

Made by one sailor, from real nights spent backing charter yachts into crowded Croatian marinas.

Please note: this is a game, not sailing training. Harbours, depths and boat handling are simplified and must never be used for real navigation.
