[Alberg30] How do I back this boat?

[Brian and Elaine Timmins]

  Don't neglect the effects of the wind. The cut away forefoot (compared to
a FULL keel) alows the bow to blow downwind fairly easily. It might seem
like your backing into the wind.
   I used to be convinced that my A30 would always back to port until I
changed slips to the other side of the main pier. From then on, she always
backed to starboard.

> Thanks for the replies, the wheel does turn clockwise. Wouldn't that cause
starboard wheel-walk? And if not wheel walk then what else could it be? I
just recently put her in the water after a bottom job and everything below
the water line is just fine. Tim
