Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017221117A1] A sail propulsion element comprising an inflatable sail (2) consisting essentially of two substantially sealed adjacent surfaces (9, 10) linked to each other on the perimeter of same, thus together forming a recess (8); the element further comprising a conduit (11) disposed between the inside and the outside of the recess (8) and means for injecting air into the latter; characterised by the fact that the sail (2), once inflated, has a profile that remains permanently symmetric, regardless of the movement of the element, or the direction or strength of the wind.
