The History of Windvane Self Steering Systems & Installing a New @Hydrovane Vane Cover

Hello Friends, We received a gift box from our fiends Will and Sarah Curry ( https://www.instagram.com/sailing.kaia ) at Hydrovane that included a much needed replacement Vane cover. On this video we show you how to fit the cover and I talk about the unlikely origins of Windvane self steering systems, which revolutionized ocean sailing for solo sailors and short handed crews on small boats. You can see my original install video here: https://youtu.be/5uOeA6YxAC0 Visit https://hydrovane.com to find out more about this remarkable piece of kit! ------ If you enjoy the channel please "Like" the videos and Subscribe so you don't miss any future episodes.
