From Pathfinder Wiki
According to Newton's third law of motion, every action has an equal and opposite reaction. The wind imposes a force on a sail and the boat will move when the force can overcome the resistance from the boat in the water. The larger the area of the sail, the more wind "force" is collected to overcome the boat resistance. The lighter the boat, the less force needed to overcome resistance.
