What is "sailing"?
Sailing is a sport or activity where boats are moved by the wind using sails. The sails catch the wind, which pushes the boat forward across the water. Sailing can be done for recreation or in races, and it takes place on different bodies of water, such as lakes, rivers, or oceans. To sail, the person in control of the boat must adjust the sails and steer the boat to navigate in different wind conditions. Sailing can be peaceful and relaxing or exciting and challenging, depending on the environment and type of boat used.
