Which outcome arises regarding Viking longship maneuverability when sailcloth permeability exceeds optimal limits?

💡 Explanation

Excessive sailcloth permeability in longships leads to increased airflow through the sail (pressure differential reduction), creating form drag, because air escapes through the weave rather than driving the ship forward; therefore, upwind performance suffers, rather than improving speed.
