When calculating WCA, how is it that if the wind is blowing from the right of your true course (right crosswind), you DEFINATIVELY add a correction angle?
Is it because if the wind is blowing from the right...you'd have to crab right...therefore, your compass heading (numbers) would increase? For instance, if I turn from 010 to 020...that's an increase of 10 degrees to the right.
