the shape dose effect it.
It depends on many factors. The hull shape, how the sails are rigged, how much sail area you have, the ability of the crew, the wind speed, the tide.
The purpose of a sail pole on a sailboat is to provide additional support for the sail, helping to optimize its shape and catch more wind. This contributes to the overall functionality of the vessel by increasing its speed and maneuverability, allowing it to sail more efficiently in different wind conditions.
