Rack and pinion does have good feedback. I'm glad your surveyor pointed it
out to you.

Amen!

Moving up in size is not as critical, but
you may have less feel, as less effort is required to turn the wheel.



The size of the wheel is for reach, not feel. Good lord, man. That said
the Whitlock steering on the 35s5 was fantastic. Even my surveyor
commented on the feedback during the sea trial. It's quite a
difference.

Still don't get the whole "sailing" thing do ya? The size of the wheel
on a boat like a 35s5 is about reach, not feel. Even our surveyor on
the sea trial commented on the excellent feel of the steering system.
It's better than a big wheel and cheapo Edson cables.

Yeah Nutsy,

We all have been watching you go around in big circles for many years.
The same old **** from you 'round and 'round you go.

By the way; if you clip on to my page, in the signature you will see
"Jazz and yours truly sitting behind a wheel the same size as yours.
That by the way is only the outside helm. There is another located
inside. Two steering stations! Does your new Yacht have the ability to
be handled out of the weather?

Hey Nutsy, I like your main sheet set-up. Looks better than mine; if you
are single handing and helming from the side

I think the whole thing is boring. Trolls are supposed to be
fun/original/engaging. The subject lacks those items.

Nutsy,

The Edson cable system requires a simple take up to remove slack; Tell
"Oh Wheel of Wisdom" how the slack is removed from the "R&P System?"
How do you stop gear wear at moorage? R&P steering;----BLAH:^(
