Different modes of operation for an autonomous sailing vessel are introduced. The modes of operation are motivated from a nautical as well as an energy efficiency point of view. Based on the modes of operation, an efficient way to turn on and off sensors and/or actuators using a microcontroller and transistor-based relays is applied.
