## What is Sailforce?

Explain sail trim without a whiteboard or chalk: Sailforce shows course, wind and sheets in real time – on iPhone and iPad, at the dock or under way.

For skippers who want to show their crew why a sail has to be trimmed just so. And for anyone learning to sail – before or after a sailing course.

FREE: THE 2D TOP VIEW
• Course ring to steer, the wind always comes from the top
• Jib sheets port and starboard, mainsheet
• Wind triangle: true wind, boat wind and apparent wind
• Arrows for drive, side force and the resultant, plus keel and rudder force
• Trim tips in plain words, e.g. "Jib luffing · haul the sheet", "Jib aback · ease the windward sheet", "In irons · bear away"
• Wind strength from 0 to 40 knots, shown in knots, km/h and Beaufort
• A preview of the 3D yacht: it sails a demo round with a tack and a gybe

SAILFORCE PRO: THE 3D YACHT
• A 3D charter yacht to orbit and zoom, which you steer and trim yourself
• Physics tuned to polar data of 12 m cruising yachts: heel costs speed, the boat speeds up and slows down with momentum
• Tacks and gybes in real time, with the loss of speed; in a gybe the boom swings across
• Wing on wing downwind, with a warning before an accidental gybe
• A textbook cutaway through the sail: streamlines, suction and pressure in colour, adjustable height
• Stability: weight and buoyancy as arrows, plus the righting lever
• Keel and rudder visible under water, with their forces
• Wake trail, waves and animated wind lines

A NOTE ON THE PHYSICS
Sailforce is a teaching model calibrated to a typical 38–40 ft charter yacht. The speeds shown are guide values. On your boat, these all play a part: boat type and hull shape, load, sails and their condition (roller furling, reefs), waves, current, a fouled hull, gusts and wind shifts, and how well the crew trims and steers.

Sailforce is a teaching tool – not a navigation aid and not a substitute for a sailing course.
