They had used them for feet! Hope this helped:)
their sail like fins are to help them with body temperature
Sailing has been around since prehistoric times, therefore the name of the person who made the first sail boat is not recorded.
It was amargasaurus which was a type of sauropod
he was an explorer! of course he would have liked to sail.
Like that! If it were sail as in I sailed a cross the sea you could put you are a sailor you can SAIL very well. But if it was sail as in the sail on a ship, you could put the SAIL on the ship was ripped. And so on. Hope I answered your question xx
Water like the sea or lakes, but the sails sail on the wind and air. Hope this is the answer you were looking for!
Wut made ships sail in the wind was that using a persicet sail or flag will pick up the wind and will push the air out and sail..just like u swinging on a swing 
The lateen sail looks like a triangle. The point is on one side and the base is on the other side. The base of the sail would be parallel to the main mast. A spar at the top of the sail is attached to the mast. It is mainly used on sunfish and other extremely small sailing craft.
Paragliding aerofoils.
because they sail on ships.
because he felt like it
Battens help give the sail it's shape. By adding these 'spars' to the sail they control how the sail deforms under loading, resulting in a sail shaped more like a wing and less like a parachute. Battens also allow for a larger sail area, assuming the boom length and mast height remain constant. With a traditional non-battened sail, the largest possible functioning sail is a triangle defined by the ends of the boom and the tip of the mast. With battens, the sail can extend past that line drawn from the back of the boom to the tip of the mast, as the battens will act like cantilevered beams, supporting the sail past the point where tension between the boom and mast can be used. As a result, all non-battened sails are triangles, and almost every decent sail has an arched trailing edge.
