There are also pilotage videos of UK marinas from Eastbourne to Dartmouth and Alderney and then videos about wind vanes and autopilots. My boat is now based in the Caribbean so there are videos about putting her on a ship and the costs involved, as well as which are the best Caribbean Islands and marina costs.

So right now I'm doing just under 2 knots and I'm in control I have control because there is not that much wind in here and I don't need more than 2 knots to have control with my rudders.
