The seakeeping performance of unmanned sailboat directly affects its motion response characteristics. In this study, a series of CFD simulation experiments were designed and carried out to simulate the motion response of unmanned sailing boats under different wave conditions. In the simulation process, the Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes equations, which are unsteady and incompressible, are used, and the turbulence model and the coupling effect in the fluid-structure interaction are taken into account. By analyzing the simulation results, we study the motion characteristics and stability of the unmanned sailboat under various wave conditions. The results show that in extreme wave environment, the stability of unmanned sailboat is obviously affected, and the navigation Angle and acceleration are significantly changed, and corresponding control strategies need to be taken to ensure its safety and reliability. Finally, the research results are discussed and summarized in this paper, which can provide reference and guidance for engineering design and Marine mission planning in related fields.
