Hello! I am a Bricksmith fan too.

I have a question is there any ldraw cloth made specially boat sails?

The only cloth or canvas LDraw part I know of is discussed here:

http://news.lugnet.com/cad/?n=15084&t=i&v=a

It a wagon cover rather than a sail, however.

I suspect a challenge with creating cloth parts is deciding how to shape them
since fabric is flexible. For sails I suppose it would be reasonable to create
them as flat sheets, but that's not necessarily how they might appear in a
model.

When I created the wagon cover I made it drapped, since an flat sheet would work
only for BOMs. Furthermore I used color 16 for the main part.

I built a frame around the real cover to get the figures, beside recreating the
same frame in MLCad to get the key points right. You can check this out
rebuilding the 6716 using the cover and finally building the frame using
standard plates and bricks.
