Sailing plans?

So in the latest stream it was confirmed that wind direction affects your sailing speed in certain directions. I think that's awesome! I love sailing in games but very few do it well..
I was wondering how complex AoC will make sailing (the more complex the better imo, to a point). So a few questions:
-Does the type of ship affect speed in certain wind directions? For example would a square rigged ship go faster with the wind from behind as a fore-to-aft rigged ship?
-Will we be able to change sail angles?
-Will wind in the sails at certain angles make the ship heel over and will depowering the sails change the amount of heeling?
I don't really expect the last two points to become reality but the first point would be cool allready..

I would be surprise if there isn't transport ships. Also just little more information about nodes you should check out.

I wouldn't mind the idea of Atlas/Sea of thieves kinda sailing think they're done pretty well
