Big sails can catch more wind than small sails, allowing them to generate greater force and propel the boat faster. The increased surface area of larger sails enables them to harness more wind energy, especially in moderate to strong winds. Additionally, larger sails can help maintain speed in lighter winds by maximizing the available wind force, making them generally more efficient for achieving higher speeds.
