I am new to sailing and the 26x is my first boat. I find that the steering requires a great deal of force to make heading changes. It felt as though the motor was resting on the steering linkage,but was not. I even tried using only one rudder as I moved along at 5 kts,still I was exhausted as I muscled each steering input. Is this normal for the 26x or am I missing some basic helmsmanship? WIPED OUT TIRED ON THE CHESAPEAKE! HELP.
