A circle of little boats can make sailing look like a compass puzzle. The useful starting point is the wind arrow. Points of sail describe the boat’s direction relative to the wind, rather than a fixed destination on a map.
Keep one reference still
Draw an arrow pointing down your page and label it “wind coming from the top”. Beneath it, draw a boat viewed from above. Turn the drawing of the boat while leaving the wind arrow alone. You are changing the relationship that the diagram describes.
The RYA’s introduction identifies a beam reach with wind from the side, a broad reach farther downwind, and a run with wind from behind. It also shows the upwind no-go area. Use its labelled diagram to check your sketch.
Change the wind, then ask again
Now hold the boat still and rotate the wind arrow. The boat can keep pointing towards the same edge of the paper while its point of sail changes. This is why memorising a drawing without its arrow is unhelpful.
Write down the label you find confusing and take that question to an instructor. The sketch explains vocabulary; it does not teach sail handling or establish suitable conditions for a trip. Add the distinction to your personal sailing glossary.
