Miss Cindy sailing with the tiller free self steering Sea of Cortezby TonyBigras2,031 views
would this work on my 1973 Coronado 30 with a fin keel, That does not have a trim tab on the keel? everyone has been telling me I have to have a full keel, for it to work properly. also could you make a video show me how to run everything, and kinda keep it slow so I can make sure I have a grasp on it and don't screw it up? I'm slow at this stuff for some reason. thanks, Bill

@ganni025 . Absolutely. We found that the bungy cord was far better at concentrating and steering than any crew for extended periods. Also, as the bungy is always set to round up, there is no reason why you should get a dunk in normal sailing. However, if you are pushing the limits a bit and carrying a lot of sail, then you will have to stand-by to dump the mainsheet as you wold if you were hand-steering in these circumstances. Good luck and let me know how it goes!

Good question why not everyone uses this system....in my case i just saw your video since i was watching all the expensive systems and i am going to wait for summer to try it out so that if i capsize the water would be a bit warm since i have a small 15 ft dingy......great job

@pkwom: the jib sheet works very well from beam reaching back to a broad reach, but on the windward the main sheet works better. Good luck!

Excellent idea. I'm going to try this on my Drascombe Lugger using the jib sheet.

Exactly! Main sheet stays attached at all times - you simply loosen it slightly until the strain is taken by the line going to the tiller. when it all goes wrong, you simply flip the lines out of the cleats (as you so rightly said) and voila - you are sailing again by hand!

And when it all goes wrong do you pull both sheets out of camcleats and use the same main sheet for control??

Fantastic video!! What a great system - and so cunning of you to get it together to use the old wisdom to create a green solution. Love it!!
