Good Grief Bob..... it's a much superior system to a wheel. Less moving
parts, better "feel" and as is the case with mine being a stern hung
tiller... it's the choice of those in the know about sailing.

I wouldn't have a wheel unless the boat was 40 ft of bigger.

All that is true and undisputed, however, do you have an emergency
wheel in the event of a tiller failure? The only drawback I can see
for most tiller arrangements is that they can eat up a lot of real
estate in the cockpit. Otherwise, they are better. What sort of boat
is it?
