What do you mean it is unrealistic, that is how sail boats work. If you want to move against the wind you have to tack back an forth.

or just drop down to the first chevron as thats employing the rudders and not relying on wind at all. the only other game with great sailing mechanics is ATLAS (that i've played anyways) and you have to know how to tack or you won't get anywhere lol.
