In response to a query on rec.windsurfing about the difference between a tack
and a gybe, I drew the following picture:

Tack Jibe
Can't seem to get the angle of attack on the sail right for the tack. Any
sailor/artists out there have ideas?
(If you have ideas about how to improve the picture in general, while
keepping the information quality level, I'm interested.
Thanks!
