Notes
Linked
to
cruising
speed,
Rudder
Gain
is
used
in
Perf
1
response
level,
it
is
used
with
less
effect
in

2
‐
5
levels.
Rudder
gain
is
progressively
faded
out
as
the
response
level
is
increased,
in
favour
of
the
PS
algorithm
which
uses
a
fixed
table
with
set
gain
parameters
based
on
the

boat
mathematical
model.
