About the Game

This Chad Valley game is a simple roll and move affair in which up to four players race their passenger liners across the Atlantic.

All players leave from the UK (Liverpool, Bristol, Southampton and London), and have their own 75-space tracks ending in the Americas (Quebec, New York, Kingston, and Panama). Each track has four special spaces: Miss a Turn; Go Again; Back 3; and Back 5.

The three-section board has some nice graphics including scenes from Africa and South America and various incidents en route. The green player must be thankful that technology has improved since 1912: the iceberg off Newfoundland causes only a missed turn!

The board is 17" x 11.5", and has two folds, with an almost square center piece and smaller Eastern and Western side pieces.
