Contrails sails crew without Lieutenant podium

[MagicPuncher 29]

If I have crew assigned to sail control, is there a way to control them from the helm, or can that only be done from a Lieutenant podium?

This podium is pure cosmetic

Handling sail doesn't allow for a solo player to control sail at steering wheel does it?  Wishful thinking I guess.

It does if you have crew assigned to the sails. Holding left shift and A D turn them WS raise/lower

For every sail that has a crew assigned to it, you have control of the sail from the steering wheel. Same with cannons.

This is exactly what I needed, thank you.
