We have just taken delivery of our new Mahe so our view may have a bias.
We took her out in virtually no breeze which then built during the day.
Like most yachts (including monohulls) she was a little sensitive to passing wash when she had no real headway (perhaps similar to the "quiet conditions" that are described).
Once the breeze got up to 6 knots or so the effect went completely.
We are very happy campers.
A longer report to follow.
