Sails don't work - adrift at sea - JonTom - 07-15-2017

It is wrong to laugh at the plight of others, and I'm glad they were rescued, but this article on 4 men rescued at sea had an amusing (to me) line:


"Additionally, the vessel’s sails were not working and their GPS was not functioning properly."

I'm certainly no mariner/sailor, but don't sails either function (with wind) or they're damaged? How does a sail "not work"?? chime in if u can OT (or others).

Yes, sails didn't work for me one time except in one direction and I knew nothing about sailing or tacking with sails. I was quite young and finally got it to shallow water and walked it back in on a rope :-)

I'm not much of a sailor . Sails give me the willies . Not a funny situation but you do have to wonder .

I would attribute the wording to the ignorance of the writer.
