Sailboat Diagrams Physics Help Please. No Idea How To Work This One?

Physics help please. no idea how to work this one? - sailboat diagrams

The force exerted by the wind in the sails of a sailboat in the North, 390 N. The water exerts a force of 180 N, 12.3 degrees south of east. When the ship) (including crew has a mass of 270 kg, is what the magnitude and direction of acceleration?

So my teacher told me that ...
"For this problem, have only a free-body diagram shows the horizontal forces, so that only
draw a plan view of the boat. Do not worry about the vertical forces such as gravity
and the normal force.
