Björn just send this message:
We have an old WindPilot Pacific that works just great.
Last week we made the trip from Fiji to NZ in nine days with the windpilot engaged for seven and a half.
We had to shut down the windgenerator because we hade no electric consumption…

Our question is now if you have a wormgear to this old pacific that we could order. It’s still working but the with material looks very brittle and we don’t want to loose our windvane on our next trip from NZ to Alaska.
Please read more and see their pictures.
