If I crash my boat into the docks after several days of game play, do I have to start the mission all over or can I "load" from the last anchor point?

I figured it out!
Or rather; you were right all along.
I had somehow gotten the impression that I was supposed to do something during that very first turn, and when the boat didn't act like I had expected, I probably made far too aggressive turns on the rudder with very strange results, like the boat actually beginning to sail backwards and such.
Anyway, I get it now and am safely on my way from Antwerpen to Rotterdam with what looks to be a lovely pile of coal.
Please delete this thread as it was clearly not a bug but merely my own incompetence.

Still no luck I'm afraid.
The double tap centre thing is a neat trick to know, but I don't yet need it for the rudder, because even if I turn it all the way to the right the boat still doesn't turn enough to follow the blue line. In fact, after the initial slight turn which is initiated by the game, it seems to me like I lose control altogether. I can still set speed, but no amount of turning the rudder seems to make the boat turn in any direction.
I used two fingers to zoom in and out, but only one to manipulate controls.

I'm playing on a Samsung Galaxy A tablet in the Chrome browser.
I tried the first mission where the object is to follow the blue line out of the harbour.
The game asks me to use the up and down arrow keys to get the boat moving, but I don't seem to have any playing on a tablet.
I eventually figured out that I could move the horizontal lever in the middle of the hub. It was very difficult to make subtle adjustments this way, but it did get things moving.
Once the boat had moved a bit, I tried to drag the map to centre the boat again. This did work, but I noticed that both the boat and the blue line followed my "dragging" until I let go and then snapped back to the place it should be.
When I reached the point where the blue line turns right, the boat immediately started turning left (I suspect there's probably a more correct nautical term than "left," but I don't know it). I was able to correct this a little by turning the steering wheel (yeah, thats not the proper name either) all the way to the right, but then all controls seemed to become unresponsive or at least completely arbitrary. The boat also started to go slower at this point.
I tried 3 times with the same result.
