A beam reach isn't necessarily the fastest point of sail. It depends on the boat, the efficiency (lift/drag ratio) of the sail, and the efficiency of the centreboard/keel (again, lift/drag ratio), but a reach of some kind is likely to be the fastest - it just won't be exactly perpendicular to the true wind direction. It'll also vary with the wind speed, wave height, weight distribution, etc. |
