A boat with a softbody clothg sail being blown downwind. The rudder is rigged to counteract the torque from the sail (more or less). The heavy keel keeps the boat from capsizing, and also resists sideways movement by applying drag forces.
Next - add proper lift forces, so the boat can sail into the wind
