    hat to burst ur bubble, but the apparent means they cant sail into the wind. They have awful pointing. Thats why they are healed to winward upwind, so the foils pull them to windward.

    they can sail closer to the wind than a normal dinghy as the apparent wind allows them to!!

    they can also stay foiling through-out the tack!!

    double the wind speed or greater, nice efficiency.

    I want to see how you tack, and how well it points to the wind.

    though interesting and i understand what you are saying. This doesn’t quite answer my question, but I think i figured it out. Thanks.

    6: The angle changes the RELATIVE movement of one to the other. He/She is what they call “reaching” or traveling with the wind sideways(perpendicular). This is why they lean over on the upwind side so they do not flip over. This will get the most speed for the wind speed available. ALL DUE TO THE ANGLE!
    7: Salt water burns eyes!! Have fun!!!

    1.Put your right arm at a 45 deg. towards the monitor’s left side.
    2. with the arm straight but elbow bent slide the left fist from the inside of the elbow towards the desk and see the *angular*
    movement of your right arm.
    3. Now change the angle (flatter) towards yourself.
    4. Now you see that you right arm went farther than your left fist.
    5. The angle “makes” this happen, as they are relative to each others movement.
