Its note
Splashery stretches a drumhead over this Splash's outline, twelve inches across, and finds the ways it can ring. Its lowest is 583.2 Hz, 12 cents flat of D5. The next fifteen are its overtones, and each one draws its own figure: sand gathers on the lines that stay still.

About it
A sailboat is pushed along by the wind in its sails. A sail works like a wing, so a sailboat can even sail at an angle toward the wind. Under the water, a keel resists sideways motion; its weight helps a ballasted boat stay upright.
Tap it for a big gust: the boat heels over, leaning far to one side, with spray flying at the bow and the stern, then it rocks back upright. Sailors lean out over the high side to help hold the boat up. Pick the colors of the sails and the stripe in the Splash tab.
