"Simple Simon" wrote: The prime motive force occurs on the leeward side of the sail and not on the windward side as PIM is attempting to suggest. I am not suggsting that the sailforce comes from the windward side alone, The leeward side is also very effective in deflecting the wind. (Actually I suggest the leeward side is a little more important, because there is more air on the leeward, because it has been sucked to the leeward side.) again, this is on my website under www.sailtheory.com/sail.html Under PIMs scenario there would be no tip vortex. I explain tipvortex! www.sailtheory.com/sail.html#tipvortexes Again you suggest I wrote things I have never wrote. please read my site a little more thoroughly, before you commment its contents wrongly.
