Naturally, the waves that a boat makes is called a wake. I’m not talking about the waves.
But suppose a sailboat is moving through calm water slowly. There is a difference in water color trailing behind even though the waves are consistent.
What is that called?

Well, I got this Sailboat. To get it to my house you have to cross this bridge. I see other people’s Sailboats mast retract or they come done. What do I need to get that done. What device do they have. I looked it up online and nothing comes up. Please Help!

Ok, picture this:
A sailboat is on flat, calm water, with no wind. The sails are open. A fan is on the rear end of the sailboat blowing an unlimited amount of air into the sails.
Would the sailboat go forward, or reverse?

The sailboat is traveling east at 40mph in an ocean current that moves south at 30mph. What is the resultant velocity?
I came up with 40mph southeast but I’m not sure that’s right.
