Yeah, it really does feel like after the patch or two before the most recent update, that we really fight against headwinds a lot more than we did before May. Almost over night, it felt like travelling in any direction for more than 60 seconds would result in a direct headwind (you could practically set your watch by it). It seems to have lightened up a bit, and I get that it's supposed to reflect RL weather systems and encourage sailors to tack into the wind, but it's a pain in the ar$e being able to (fairly accurately) predict where the next headwind is going to come from, because it's usually in the direction you want to go.
