In this context, the accuracy is not the main concern. In this paper, we consider the tight slalom problem which requires accuracy. We propose a feedback-linearization based method combined with a vector field approach to control the sailboat. Some simulations show that the robot is able to perform the slalom without missing any gate. %G English %2 https://hal-ensta-bretagne.archives-ouvertes.fr/hal-01867575/document %2 https://hal-ensta-bretagne.archives-ouvertes.fr/hal-01867575/file/paper_slalom.pdf %L hal-01867575 %U https://hal-ensta-bretagne.archives-ouvertes.fr/hal-01867575 %~ UNIV-BREST %~ INSTITUT-TELECOM %~ ENSTA-BRETAGNE %~ CNRS %~ UNIV-UBS %~ ENSTA-BRETAGNE-STIC %~ ENIB %~ LAB-STICC %~ TDS-MACS %~ INSTITUTS-TELECOM
