Summary
| Description |
English: This curve is calculated, using the formula: β = 90° – arctan {[VT sin (90° – true wind angle) + VB] / [VT cos (90° – true wind angle)]}[1] for a true wind angle of 135° and using various multiples of VT = 10 for VB. The performance characteristics of a variety of high-performance sailing craft are called out. |
