Make the sails collapsible, or make it possible to turn one of them inside 
out if you know what I mean, as if you could push one side of an umbrella 
outwards and still have the other half rigid against the wind.  This sort
of design would only require the simplest of machinery and would make
turning very quick, and if quick enough then there need only be one set
of collapsible sales, you could always turn in the same direction and
just stop turning when you're facing the right direction.
