camberedSailPolar() ​

ts
function camberedSailPolar(options?): Polar;

Defined in: packages/marine/src/foils/polars.ts:109

A cambered sail: some lift even with the flow along the chord, rising until it stalls around 20° and then behaving like a flat plate, with drag that stays low until stall. Lift-to-drag peaks around 6, which is what lets a boat sail about 45° off the wind.
