The servo is hooked up to the Arduino via pin 9. I've uploaded one of the example sketches you get with Arduino ISP called 'Servo Sweep'. The servo is powered by a 24 volt rough DC supply as you can see in the video. The 20mm steel boss was machined and bored out concentrically to 8.0 mm. A 5.0 mm hole was drilled in the side of the boss and tapped to take an M6 grub screw. The boss was welded into a piece of 1/8 inch steel plate to make the servo arm.
As her crew makes the move to upsize to a larger boat, "Getaway" has just been listed by motivated Sellers hoping to prevent having 2-boat-itis! The Mirage 33 is well known for sporty and comfortable sailing with many of them being locally raced and cruised. A spacious and bright interior with new ports and 2 overhead opening hatches offer a ton of space with a large v-berth, enclosed head, a comfortable convertible dinette providing the option of another double bunk, plus 2 additional single berths. The galley comes fully equipped with a 2-burner stove and oven, large fridge, pressurized hot and cold water and lots of storage. Topsides the eye-catching design of wide flat decks and a large cockpit with wheel steering, auto-helm and electric windlass are perfect for sailing and cruising either single handed or fully crewed. Best of all, "Getaway" comes with a full cockpit enclosure AND Espar forced air heating to extend the cruising season well past the peak summer months.
