ok, so I just had my first DAY of sailing (read, 12+ hours) and have come to the conclusion that standing by the tiller all day is not fun, and is a bit draining.
So I''d like to rig some sort of self stearing.
I''ve heard of sheet to tiller stearing, where, by some assortment of lines, pullies, and bungie cords, the tiller is strapped to the boom, and this stears. This sounds rather complicated (although everywhere I hear about it they swear it''s not) So if someone could tell me how to do it SIMPLY (I''m an imbicile, remember this in your explination
) I''ll give it a shot.
Otherwise, is it practicle to rig a wind vane on a 20'' boat? Any brands I should look for, or look out for?
Other suggestions?
Thanks
