put a "streamer" down. it tells you the direction of the wind.
place your receiver facing the direction the wind is blowing. this should ALSO be the front of your raft.
now when you look at the receiver, if the DOT is to the left....go to the left with the sail.
you must turn the sail farther than it looks like you need to.
i.e: if the DOT is 90degrees left, you need to turn the sail so far to the left it is almost going backwards with relation to the wind.
if the DOT is MORE than 90degrees right or left.....you cant reach it with the sail alone.
you will need paddles or the engine.

I know it, but whatever I wouldn't do, I'm moving away from the blue point

If u are trying to go to balboa island after the vasagatan ship then u must place the steering wheel and the engines because the wind blows against your destination

Sounds like you need engines for your raft if you're trying to get to a blip on the radar while going against the wind. You need 1 engine for every 100 blocks of foundation that you have on your raft. Once you power them up with biofuel (or planks), make sure each engine's directional bar is synced up in the same direction - in the direction that you want your raft to go (forward or backward, so you should place your engines along the SIDES of your raft, not the front or back).

Make sure your computer is always facing forward, if not it wont rotate its radar to match the direction its facing causing you to feel like you're drifting away or past markers on it.
