    A given point of sail (beating, close reach, beam reach, broad reach, and running downwind) is defined in reference to the true wind—the wind felt by a stationary observer. The motive power , and thus appropriate position of the sails, is determined by the apparent wind : the wind relative to an observer on the sailing craft.
