Fairly new to RC sailing.

I had discovered that in light wind my sail boat tended to turn slightly upwind on gusts then settles back to the original line.

However today sailing in steady moderate wind I noticed it was very difficult to turn. When trying to tack, the boat would initially turn quickly up wind to a close reach then be blown towards downwind again, and continue along the original path. Upon trying to jibe I would encounter the same (although opposite) thing. Even with a fair amount of way on the rudder seemed to have little effect once I had turned anywhere outside of beam reach.

I watched as my boat made it's way further and further from the shore, refusing to turn back.

Is this the effect of sailing with too much wind, or is there an issue with my rigging?<br type="_moz" />
