If I recall correctly, the game environment hardly affects the sailing at all. There is no current, no wind, etc. For comparison purposes, the ships drive like cars for the most part. The most I can think of at the moment that affects the sailing is the build up/slow down in speed when starting/stopping and how turning decreases your speed. There is still a lot of extra things they could do to make it better, though making it too realistic would be a drawback in some respects.
