Steer to wind
Wind steering is only available if 'Boat type' is set to 'Sail'
in the Installation menu.
The 'Minimum wind angle' is the minimum apparent wind
angle that will keep the sails well shaped and give an
acceptable thrust. This parameter will vary from boat to
boat.
The 'Minimum wind angle' applies for the tack-prevent
function. It also applies when the autopilot is operating in
Wind
mode.

You can select different minimum wind angles for port
and starboard. The difference between port and
starboard will be taken into account when calculating the
