The Points of Sail

When sailing, each angle to the wind has a specific name. In this virtual reality video, we show each name and relate it to the clock hours. e.g. a close haul is at about 1 and 11 o'clock. Close reach - 2 and 10 o'clock. Beam Reach - 3 and 9 o'clock. Broad Reach - 4 and 8 o'clock. Deep Broad Reach - 5 and 7 o'clock. Downwind run - 6 o'clock.
