This document discusses the parts of a boat, how to sail with the wind, and navigation during Columbus' time. It explains that the tiller is used to move the rudder, which is used to steer the boat in different directions. It also notes that keels are used to balance boats. The document then describes how to sail depending on wind direction and provides examples. Finally, it outlines some of the challenges of navigation for Columbus, including the use of caravels without keels, square sails, and lack of knowledge about destinations.

2. BEFORE WE SET SAIL WE HAVE TO
KNOW:
 Different parts of a boat
 How to sail with wind
 The navigation in Colombus' time

3. DIFFERENT PARTS OF A BOAT

4.  We use the tiller to move the rudder.
 We use the rudder to go in different ways.
 The keel balance the boat.
 If you catch the mainsail you can have a
shipwreck..

5. HOW TO SAIL WITH WIND
 If the wind goes infront us we cannot sail in that
direction, so we have to sail a bit to the right or to the
left. Here we have an example to go from the Burger
King to the ''Baños del Carmen''.

6. THE NAVIGATION IN COLOMBUS' TIME
It was very difficult to navigate in
Colombus' time because...
 They used caravels that hadn't got keel.

7.  They didn't know were they had to go.
 There are in the Altantic Ocean the trade winds.
 Caravels didn't have jib.
 Caravels had square sails.

9.  The last Friday we went to a sail course.
I don't kown why but I have hydrophobia and I
was very scared.
When we got on the boat the monitor calmed
me down. I enjoyed a lot.
Now I love to sail.
The trip was very good and interesting.
