Yes, sailing in SL relies on vehicle physics AND server side wind.
It's tied to Havok.

Wind should be very easy to implement : the server has to provide a
direction and strengh + small variation ...
About vehicle physics ... I don't know what ODE is capable of ...

Anyway, sailing is very popular in SL and is very pleasant !
