The research project Sailing with physics. Application of physics to sailing is about sailing, in particular, about the Olympic Laser sailboat. It has a theoretical part and a practical part. In the first part, there’s an extensive historical research about the evolution of sailing and the Laser sailboat, apart from an explanation of the main physical principles which take part in sailing and a theoretical explanation about some concepts and techniques typical of sailing. In the second part, a practical study has been done in order to find the optimum position of the Laser Radial sailboat and sail when performing the tacking technique. This study has been carried out by analyzing 243 tacks, recorded in different combinations of three levels of the sail systems, with the video analyzing program Tracker. The conclusions of this project include the physical properties explained to justify the results obtained from the field research ​
