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.

Diesmal liegt ein ganz besonderes Highlight auf unserer Route: Die schmalste Meerenge der Welt. Diese kann aufgrund starker Strömungen nur nachts durchfahren werden. Während der Durchfahrt im Pulk mit einigen Segelbooten staut es sich gerade an der engsten Stelle bedenklich! Seht selbst, ob wir heil durchkommen und was wir noch so erleben auf dieser Tour. This time there is a very special highlight on our route: the narrowest strait in the world. Due to strong currents, it can only be crossed at night. During the passage in a group with a few sailing boats, there is a serious traffic jam at the narrowest point! See for yourself whether we get through safely and what else we experience on this tour.
🇧🇷 Me perguntam : Por que vim? Esse lugar é diferente do que imaginei, os problemas são outros, os prazeres também. Parti porque ficar não era o único caminho, parti porque o destino futuro dava sentido ao presente, parti porque foi possível, parti por isso e aquilo e por outros motivos que não sei dizer. Parti quando o barco ficou pronto o bastante e quando chegou a hora. Por que teria ficado? 🇫🇷 Ils me demandent : « Pourquoi suis-je venue ? » Cet endroit est différent de ce que j’avais imaginé, les problèmes sont différents et les plaisirs aussi. Je suis partie parce que rester n’était pas la seule solution, je suis partie parce que la destination future donnait un sens au présent, je suis partie parce que c’était possible, je suis partie pour ceci et cela et pour d’autres raisons que je ne peux pas expliquer. Je suis partie quand le bateau était suffisamment prêt et quand le moment est venu. Pourquoi serais-je restée ? 🇺🇸 They ask me: Why did I come? This place is different from what I imagined, the problems are different and so are the pleasures. I left because staying wasn’t the only way, I left because the future destination gave meaning to the present, I left because it was possible, I left for this and that and for other reasons I can’t tell you. I left when the boat was ready enough and when the time came. Why would I have stayed?
