Hey -
I use my heart rate monitor for everything its the coolest little toy. The most expensive ones do not have just"light moderte , heavy' they ahve 6 categories.
AS far as the heart rate goes in different conditions I found
Light air- you heart rate is typicall low esp if you aren't pay that much attention unless u get stressed then it goes up slightly
moderate wind mine sits at about 120-130 depending on how much working thru waves I do and if I ahve ot hike- it typically goes up with down wind bc i'm a light weght and I ahve work my ass off to keep up
heavy air my rate rate is def in cardio zone
Energy consumption to give u an Idea I spent 6270 calories in the 5 day regatta at OCRs and the average wind was about 8.5 kts and averaging 2 races per day I think we had 10 or 11 the entire time.
hope this it what you were looking for

Old fat guys who sail less efficiently might develop even higher heart rates.
