Jeeze- the correct expression is "ship-shape and Bristol fashion".

You should probably back off this point, Rob. I've sailed several boats
with
rack & pinion steering, and the concensus, in addition to my own
conclusion, was
that they lacked feedback. They have "no" feel. To say it is similar to a
tiller
sounds especially funny.

It;s a nice boat, and I look forward to sailing on it, but a well designed
and
maintained cable system is just as close or closer to a tiller as any R&P
system as far as feedback. You may be accustomed to old cable systems that
had
been neglected or were just never very good from the start. At the end of
the
day, none of them even remotely approximates a tiller. The R&P will give
you a
very positive "feel", but that's not the same thing as feedback. Feedback
is the
pressure of the water flowing past the rudder being transmitted back to
you. R&P
by nature, is essentially dead in that regard.


Captain Joe Redcloud

I told him that several threads ago and pointed out cable systems are used
in supersonic and very large aircraft.

He doesn't understand gear, screw systems or the basics of mechanical
advantage, so let him flop about.

Perhaps you and Rob could form a chorus line and flop about for the rest of
us. Don't worry, between your anemia and Robbie's colon you'll tire quickly.

Amen!

I have my own personal lava filled hot tub!
