In view of some offshore sailing in the (hopefully) not to distant future, I am thinking of getting windvane selfsteering.
So far, I've looked at Hydrovane and Aries.
If I were to buy new, for my boat, it would set me back about 5K Euro.
Even used kit still fetches a premium price.
Now considering Pacific Windpilot.
Cost new would be a (just) affordable 3K Euro.
Anyone have any first hand experience?
What's the good, the bad and the ugly?
Many thanks
