The sail goes back up, but the wind can't catch it right anymore.

A brief explantion of the controls. (now that we are on the topic.)

There are four levers, three wheels, two sails, and a smallish balloon. Maia just pulled the leftmost lever. You do not have any idea what any of thee things do, since you aren't mechanically inclined.

One last note. You don't have enough time to try everything out. Maybe one or two more levers. You may roll a 1d20 with no modifier for sheer dumb luck.
