Every once in a while, I simply announce I'm taking a nap and let her carry on however she wants to. But, I'd bet you DON'T do that in the conditions I've set for the test... On a nice day the Amel will sail itself all day if you want to go in one direction. My test specs are in NASTY weather when you'd break that leg. I've found that because we drill fairly often in benign conditions, she doesn't mind doing it. When the s..t hits the fan, she has always been right there, anticipating my next move, and didn't get worried until the flurry cleared. Works for us. Making a big thing out of it doesn't. If you did that test on me, Larry, I'd throw you overboard. I'm a partner in this enterprise, not a student - not a test subject, and not a midshipmen. Good thing I wasn't drinking my coffee...
