I wrote a small blog post about connecting my tillerpilot to my windvane. You can check it out here http://whitespotpirates.com/how-to-connect-a-raymarine-tillerpilot-to-a-windpilot-pacific/ Anyone of you have a similar set up on your boat? My Raymarine autopilot is not strong enough for my 8.5t aluminum Reinke Super 10. That is why I decided to try out what I had read from other boat owners with the same problem: to connect my autopilot to my Windpilot Pacific to reduce the needed power for stearing. I still have to test it out on the water...but it seems to work so far. I was just wondering if it could possibily damage my windvane with this set up, that is why I wanted to ask Peter Foerthmann of http://www.windpilot.com/ for advice. Let's see what he thinks about it... Ahoy, Nike & Karl ATTENTION: this is REAL TIME ;) Just mounted that thing yesterday! I know this is all very confusing with the timing and stuff...sorry for that.

STRAMBATA: Dal traverso mure a sinistra si passa rapidamente al traverso mure a dritta, il timoniere compie un angolo di abbattuta molto stretto, il trimmer dell gennaker lasca completamente la scotta per permettere la rotazione dell gennaker, il prodiere aiuta la regolazione della vela nelle nuove mure prendendo in mano la bugna e correndo verso poppa. La randa passa velocemente da una mura all'altra, il resto dell'equipaggio segue i movimenti della barca spostando i pesi contemporaneamente da sottovento a sottovento nelle nuove mura.

Bull sharks have killed 25 humans and we needed to swim bull shark infested waters to fix a jacked up prop on the sailboat while sailing the Bahamas in Nassau. Would fix your prop if bull sharks lurked near by? #sailing #travel #bahamas
