While sailing in the Caribbean this week, were were deep into a discussion about true wind and apparent wind.

True wind is the vector (speed and direction) that the wind is actually blowing. Apparent wind is the resultant vector of adding true wind and the velocity of the boat.

>So what is the kid wind?
