Agreed. But, you're thinking like a racer and I'm thinking like
the one armed paper hanger singlehanding around in narrow busy
waters. I get help a lot of the time but often end up short
tacking home up a narrow channel while the tired kids read down
below. I lose more speed trying to crank and steer at the same
time than I would bearing off a bit with the jib too tight, but
I need the boat to point.

Hmmmm. Time to start the engine.
