Sailing physics

[MikeUpchat]

Can anyone point me at an asset or some example code to do the physics of sailing. Trying to get a wind surfing system going but with trying to just using an aerofoil model it doesn’t deal with sailing into the wind and with the wind behind you so well.

Hello Mike, I develop yacht simulator in Unity and I’d be happy to share my findings about sailing physics and appreciate for any help in development.

Thanks for sharing your experience with us. I have gone through
the Unity 3D Yacht Simulator. It will be helpful for many newbies.
Thanks again @vlBot
