I'd love to play the game when it's ready. I don't play much of anything but was searching for open-world sailing/exploration games very recently on Steam.
Sounds like exactly what I was looking for... Strange coincidence.

I had a lot of fun with Sailwind, maybe give it a try
There are a couple of ships you can sail with a simple economic engine - you start small and work up. It has some simple sail handling - its not enough to just turn right/left and manage sails up/down. Multi-sail ships are an interesting challenge but manageable.
It's pretty slow-paced, but like I said, I had a lot of fun with it for ~20 hours.

this is gem.
I particularly enjoyed the post about cloud, and I also watched Ten Skies lately... Strange coincidence.

I love this as a concept for a game.

Another game that has amazing clouds, where you move around them horizontally and vertically, is the recently released Ace Combat 8. The game itself is UE5 but clouds seem to be completely custom made, volumetric, and look amazing, especially noticeable as you're flying around/through them in the game. Examples: https://x.com/PROJECT_ACES/status/2042437413260443803 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BG7DLLdQf1k
The game is even more amazing in VR where you really get a better spatial understanding of the entire sky, environment and the clouds.
