Look! My own personal thread

Ok - I found a full .pdf of the rules on the net, and read them through, and the site gets the rules absolutely right, so sorry for bothering everyone

My issue is with the way a ship in attitude A (reaching) can turn into the wind (to attitude C), go 1 hex forwards, and turn out of the wind again on the same turn. It effectively moves sideways upwind, and does it as fast as a ship that's actually sailing upwind.

Given that a ship moving sideways upwind at all is pretty much impossible, this seems odd. But it is a problem with the original rules, not the site.
