Nice boat. Swansea to Noank at this time of year must have been a chilly run. You have some challenging projects planned. John Stone has converted his CD36 from wheel to tiller and info is available on this forum and on his website. It’s always helpful to see how others have solved the inherent issues on an identical boat. It sounds like you are building a windvane from scratch. Which design have you chosen? I chose to purchase, not build, and went with a Monitor which has proven worth every penny invested. I’m at Spicers, which Noank marina have you chosen?
