WESTERLY OCEAN LORD 41 – MESSAGE FROM PARADISE
Peter,
After our most recent passages we just wanted to send a mail to you with a massive thank you for both all your support in getting our windpilot working and for creating such an amazing steering system.
After lots of ‚playing‘ with the pilot we have finally got to grips with how it works and have had 600 miles of the most ideal sailing
with it. When the pilot is deployed the motion of the boat feels much less frenetic than under autopilot, there is no power use and as it uses a different quadrant from our autopilots we have another level of redundancy.
I cannot express just how impressed we are with how it works and how Ruffian feels.
Thanks again.
Iain & Fiona
SY Ruffian of Amble
