Sail Cars

All of the sailing, none of the water! Did you know the best angle to sail into the wind is at 45°? The vessel must zig-zag, or “tack”, from starboard to port to reach a destination from which the wind is blowing.

Intended Use

The user approaches the exhibit and selects a sail car chassis and sail from the available shapes and sizes.  The user then places the sail car on the sail platform choosing a sail angle and presses the green button to turn on the fans for a preset length of time (0-128 second range).

Experiment with different sail sizes, shapes, and tacking angles to discover which combinations sail the fastest, or try to get a car to sail "against the wind."
