'''Sailing''' is the skillful art of controlling the motion of a [[sailing ship]] or [[sailboat]], across a body of water. The force of the [[wind]] on the [[sails]] propels sailing vessels.  Today, for most people, sailing is recreation, an activity pursued for the joy of being on the water and pursuing the mastery of skills needed to maneuver a sailboat in varying sea and wind conditions.
