The invention relates to a sail propulsion element comprising: a mast (3); an inflatable sail (1) consisting essentially of two adjacent surfaces (5) that are substantially leak-tight and linked to each other about the periphery thereof, thereby forming at least one closed cavity between them, said sail comprising an upper portion (6), a lower portion (7), a leading edge (8) and a trailing edge (9), the sail comprising different curves forming bulges over the entire length; at least one air duct placed between the inside and the outside of the cavity of the sail; at least one means for injecting air into said cavity, the sail, once inflated, having a profile that remains permanently symmetrical, irrespective of the movement of said propulsion element or the direction or intensity of the wind; a headboard (10) located on the upper portion (6) of the sail; and a sail receptacle (11) located between the leading edge (8) and the trailing edge (9) on the lower portion of the sail. The element according to the invention is characterised in that it comprises a guide line (12) placed in the closed cavity of said sail, for the manoeuvres for hoisting and hauling down the sail, said guide line extending from the leading edge (8) to the trailing edge (9) of said sail, passing through the headboard (10) and the sail receptacle (11).
