Garcia 50 cruising in Antartic and Pacific performed by a Windpilot Pacific Plus. Jean Pierre wrote this message:
Dear Peter,
The Pacific windvane handled perfectly above 10 knt of apparent wind & manage correctly between 5 and 10 and it’s a bit lazy below 5knots. This Is good to us. We trim the sails to get minimum work at the wheel and connect the pacific that’s it! Leaving the main wheel free (Hydraulic). If somebody turns the wheel by mistake the pacific has a little more work to do but handle it perfect.
By the way , this site is good to know to compare windvane vs. electric pilot. https://members.shaw.ca/taonui/windvane.html
Best regards
