β€œSail the Endeavour” is an educational maths game that mixes in some geography as well, as you sail the β€œEndeavour” using angles, map scales, etc. This has a fair bit of high resolution graphics and even some crude digitised speech at the start.

In β€œSail Around Australia”, you must sail to each of a number of coastal Australian cities in the least number of moves. In each move you specify a bearing, speed and duration to sail.

β€œSail the Endeavour” and β€œSail around Australia” are different versions of the same program, with different country maps (β€œSail the Endeavour” has a New Zealand map). The final version of the program allows the user to choose which country to sail around.

Version Information

The title screen in game says β€œAround Australia with Steinlager I.” The disk was found amongst a number of floppies, with a former school Apple IIe Platinum, which was purchased near Wanganui, New Zealand.
