Able Ability System Info and Support Thread

How can i do a sailing system in able? i’ve seen many sail boat/ship project, but any with a character moving the helm like many people did with their driving systems/car controller (Assassins creed 4 Black Flag, like. in third person).

PD: i know is quite complex, but just the sailing, without the physics, etc… the real question is how can i sail a ship?
