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.

NauticEd’s Skipper Large Powerboat Course is the definitive training program for boaters commanding vessels 27 feet and larger ​​in inland or near-coastal waters with moderate to rough conditions. Designed for serious boaters, the course delivers real-world instruction in docking, navigation, electrical systems, safety, and emergency handling—with clear, practical lessons focused on actual powerboat operation, not just theory. Students call it “the most complete and confidence-building course they’ve taken,” while experienced boaters say they “wish it had been available 30 years ago.” Many describe it as “a solid foundation not just for knowledge, but for true skipper-level responsibility.”
