I share your frustration.

I used to be so careful not being detected before an attack, until I realised that their reduced average speed along the base course (that they still seem to follow) in many cases has made my subsequent attack easier
I agree on the constant helming, be much better with long zig legs. However, the continual rudder speed never seems to change more than a knot or two between the lil zigs, I'm talking about the big speed decrease before that.
