How far did he travel from his mooring before he trimmed for the

We don't know, nor do we know the amount of weather helm he
experienced, nor do we know how many times he was hit by a gust and
fell off for a moment. Kinda changes things.


6 miles total - (3 out + 3 in) = 0

How much weather helm is he likely to get when beating in an 11mph wind?
