An apparatus for adjusting the surface of at least one sail exposed to the wind in a boat comprising one or more detectors for sensing at least of the direction of the wind, its speed, the degree of the rolling of the boat, the frequency of the oscillations, the rolling, pitching and yawing angles and the accelerations with respect to a reference system; motorized drive means for hoisting and lowering, or else winding and unwinding at least in part the sail; a control unit programmed to automatically control the drive means of the sail in feedback based upon the detected quantity, or else following a command imparted by the skipper. A method for adjusting the surface of the sails in feedback based upon the detected quantity. |
