I realize a sailboat can’t go directly at the wind (or maybe it can🤷🏽♂️) but for the life of me I can’t picture it going anywhere but where the wind is bowing.
Also, lets say you were in a round pond, could you sail to any point you wanted to in the pond with the wind blowing steady in one direction?

Off topic, but I find it amazing that there are also wind powered wheeled vehicles that can drive upwind and down wind faster than the wind speed!
