there is an amazing 3D program for kids called cosmic blobs. it's written by the solidworks people so it's going to be based on industrial strength 3D. you can learn more about it from cosmicblobs.com and even download a free copy.
i created some fun sailing animations with it. check it out and tell me what you think:

the pirate ships are fun. this is an actual tricky rules scenario in team racing (the vexing question of whether rule 17.1 applies to boats on opposite tacks in the zone). it's fun listening to some of the greatest rule minds talking about blue and yellow pirate ships. (most rules experts believe that 17.1 can apply to boat on opposite tacks in the zone, by the way.)
the windsurfer is a zaichek board with real footstraps. the sail is seth besse's. need to make a few more models so i can create some tricky rules scenarios for people to learn from.
