oh boy, maybe geometry intuitions and spatial reasoning are what's really needed.

Or maybe a nice sabbatical aboard a sailboat expedition.

Or maybe not, because that's where confusing 180 and 360 degrees or headwind and tailwing will REALLY bite you.

Do it twice to be sure

the cool way is turn 90 or 270 degrees n then do tacking.

That was obviously a joke...
