Forces on sails (3 m) = 5-m/s (≈10-knot) wind at 3 m above the water would be approximately "V" (15 m) = 6 m/s (≈12 knots) at 15 m above the water. In hurricane-force winds with "V" (3 m) = 40-m/s (≈78 knots) the speed at 15 m would be "V" (15 m) = 49 m/s (≈95 knots) with "p" = 0.128. This suggests that sails that reach higher above the surface can be subject to stronger wind forces that move the centre of effort ("CE" ) higher above the surface and increase the heeling moment. Additionally, apparent wind direction moves aft with
Scarlet Sails (band) Scarlet Sails (band) Scarlet Sails is an indie rock band from New York City, formed in 2015 by founding members Olya Viglione (lead vocals, guitar, piano, ukulele) and Brian Viglione (drums, backing vocals, guitar).
