Did a bit of practice yesterday but still cocked up our berthing!
From dead in the water we are starting to move astern And then putting about 40degrees of turn on the rudder, as our speed picks up she does start to turn but then when we try to take that turn off she continues to turn in that direction. We are now thinking that we should straighten up the rudder as soon as there is even a slight indication that we are turning. Does that sound reasonable!!
