It usually gives me 30 seconds to a minute of hands off to do stuff in higher winds and longer in lighter winds. Nothing electronic about it... best investment I ever made for single handing. I looked at one at the local West Marine store, and asked myself what it would give me that my line running across the cockpit with a loop in the middle for the tiller and doesn't give me. I did the same thing. It gives me a bit more flexibility, and I don't have to keep retying the knot. I can put it in several position quite quickly with just the flick of my thumb. Also, it's a lot easier to undo quickly... just the twist of a knob, even if it's under tension, it comes undone immediately. -- Jonathan Ganz (j gan z @ $ail no w.c=o=m) http://www.sailnow.com "If there's no wind, row." |
