Basic sailing? Dead down wind is fastest? Close hauled is slowest?



And close hauled isn't with the wind directly at you is it?

Um....this somewhat depends on the boat, but neither of these statements
are correct.



Also depends on ypiur destination. Going downwind fast when your
destination is upwind won't get you very far very fast....

As a 0 gauge railroader I don't like the idea. You couldn't make a
model of the thing since there is no wind in most basements.

Well, you should invite all of us over to discuss things.

There'd be plenty of wind.
