Abstract (en)
The present invention relates to a method (100) for controlling the propulsion modes of a boat of the type comprising a power controlled motor (21), a group of sails (22) and a first plurality of sensors (23) of the wind conditions and of the motion conditions of the boat, the method being characterized in that it comprises the steps consisting in detecting (101) a plurality of typical parameters of the wind conditions through the first plurality of sensors (23), verifying (102) whether the plurality of typical parameters of the wind conditions so detected satisfies a predetermined set of extreme conditions for hoisting or lowering the group of sails (22), selecting (104) at least one driving mode of the boat selected from a plurality of driving modes of the boat (20), when the group of sails (22) is hoisted, and controlling (110) the power controlled motor (21) on the basis of the selected driving mode of the boat.
