George

Over the winter we installed our auto pilot, George.  Several boxes of components.  And even then we had a fabricate a few more.  Lots of headscratching, diagramming, drilling, measuring, more headscratching and more measuring.

But now George is a faithful crewmember.  He doesn’t eat much (amps), doesn’t make a mess, but does a great job standing watch!

Last week we left Dividing Creek on the Wye River, on a beam reach, all the way to Herring Bay….with George at the helm all the way.  Winds built to 15-20 kts, our speed increased, but George never complained.
