It's probable that the two ships you observed in the background are traveling at different speeds, one of which is slower than wind speed.

Hmm, interesting, didn't come to think of it that way, but sounds plausible.:hmm:
Trying to look closely at those background ships, it really seems the ship with the "wrong" smoke is traveling fast to the left (wind direction), thus leaving the smoke behind in the apparent slow(er) wind.

Must fire up some big single mission battle (eg. Battle off Samar or similar) and check smoke behaviour some more.
