It is important not to confuse too high a gain with the natural yawing of the boat allowed in heavy seas. Always allow a minute under autopilot operation before making any assessment of gain as the correct bias (rudder trim) of the helm for steering a straight course may not have been fully applied, and could lead to the false conclusion of too low a gain. See section 10 for information on setting gain.
