As small a cockpit
But a bigger wheel.
Big enough it's getting kinda silly. I wonder how many turn of a wheel like this to go chock to chock? It's 3 turns on my helm...how about yours? http://www.argolis-yacht.com/en/brok.../Olympia__.JPG Joe |

You think? You do not know? I only noted that it was like the C&C, but I don't recall how many turns...not many, perhaps 2. I'll check and let you know. RB 35s5 NY |

Rob, From now on I suggest that when you move any boat, before you untie the boat, put the engine in gear and check the steering back and forth at least twice chock to chock. In doing this you understand where center is, and you know your steering is working properly. I learned this lesson the hard way. Joe RB 35s5 NY |
