To me, 'blowing to the yacht' implies the wind stops when it gets to the yacht. If you mean the yacht is moved along by the wind, you might say "the wind is blowing the yacht".

The same - it implies the wind stops when it reaches the sail. You can say "The wind is blowing/blew through the sail".

You can also say "The wind is blowing strongly" - it is acceptable.
