So, how did you calculate the effects of tide on your course to steer?

No calculations were needed. The current was on our nose. I chose to
maintain
course with reduced VMG.

Was this what you expected before setting off? (Tidal direction being 180
deg to your course, I mean.)

Did your logged speed remain fairly constant (aside from variations due to
changes in wind speed)?
