Yes, I am sure. In the sentence "The sailboat with the yellow stripes on its sails drifted across the lake," the subject is "sailboat" because it is the noun that is performing the action of drifting. The phrase "with the yellow stripes on its sails" is a prepositional phrase that adds more information about the sailboat but does not change the fact that "sailboat" is the subject.
