Abstract

The vessel has a single sloping mast (AD). The leech of the sail is parabolic passing through the top point (D) and having a tangent (at E) parallel to the mast. The normal (EH) to the mast is 2, 5 to 3, 5 times shorter than the mast and the distance AH is 0.13 to 0.19 of the length (AD). This design of sail enables the vessel to sail directly into the wind. The vessel may be fitted with a number of similar sails to increase its power and speed. The design dimensions may be used for may wind propelled device. The craft sails with the minimum of drift.
