Board game apparatus for realistically simulating the action of a sailboat race. The game board has a playing area having a plurality of movement spaces arranged over the major area thereof in a manner so as to define various possible directions of movement of a movement piece representing a sailboat, namely, the northerly, southerly, easterly, westerly, northwesterly, northeasterly, southwesterly and southeasterly directions. The apparatus further includes features for representing various factors normally encountered by a participant in an actual sailboat race such, for example, as the direction of the wind and the direction of the current. A movement direction indicator forms a part of the game board and designates the direction in which the movement piece is moving. A sailing method indicator member is provided which is adapted to be removably affixed to the game board in a selected one of several positions corresponding to the prevailing direction of the wind and which has indicia provided thereon for classifying the direction of movement of the movement piece according to its relationship to the prevailing wind direction. A set of rules for game play are disclosed which govern the movement of the game pieces according to the prevailing wind and current directions, the classification of the direction of movement of the movement piece with respect to the wind direction, as well as according to certain variations set forth on associated play variation cards.
