There are many web site that have it available to pre-order and they say the release date is 19/9/2008

Have not heard any information about it.

So is this a new game or just a mod/conversion from 32nd Americas Cup to Virtual Skipper 6.

Any ideas anyone. I am sure many people are interested and seen these links around.

"Is this real? "

I called Nadeo and the receptionist said they could tell me but they'd have to kill me. M. Green

Dear Alinoa, Hylis and Nadeo

At vsk-aus.com we luv vsk very much but it is not loved by our wives Tr?s content

We play the game for many hours each week. WD to your engineers and staff. Many players are saying VSK6 will be out for Xmas. At vsk_Australia we use the Sydney Map often and if your hard working developers have some time I am hoping they could do these adjustments...

A) There is a warship in the ferry terminal. The warship should be moved to the Navy Base.

B) It would be nice if a Sydney Harbour Ferry could be added to the collection of traffic.

Please give some consideration if there is time for making adjustments to the game.

Great post Baz. I hope they can do that for you.

At least you have a harbour bridge in the Sydney sea-scape though...

I know this thread is kinda old, but I just checked all of the links and none of them work. They all say the product has been removed. Unfortunately this makes it look like no vsk6 for xmas. Triste

The would've at least set up a website for the game by now if they had any intention of releasing withing the next few months.

The patch for VSK5 has been released now - see this thread http://www.virtualskipper-lejeu.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4124

It looks as if 'VSK5online' will replace the '32nd America's Cup' Game very soon. So the name 'VSK6' will not be used.
