AMAZING SAIL TRIM

True sail trim

Sailaway II:
Experience the real time effects of trim line adjustments on sail shape and the behaviour of the boat
Get hints on how to optimize the trim
In Sailaway III this is taken to the next level.
There are no hints, but:
The air flowing around the sail is visualized and follows the curve of the sails
The smallest trim line adjustment will immediately have an effect on the air flow visualization
Learn, practise and experiment to find the optimal settings for your boat
