Hallberg Rassy 382

“Long live Hydrovane”

“The blade sports a couple of rows of shark teeth marks after a tussle in the Pacific. We used that Hydrovane all the time saving wear and tear on the main steering gear, a problem we had encountered using a [servo pendulum unit] on an earlier boat.”

Good Day Will,

I am in the process of buying a Nich 31 with a Hydrovane. I am familiar with the standard Hydrovane, one steered me safely on my 7 year circumnavigation without missing a beat, so this bit of kit was a priority for my new boat. …

I look forward to your reply.

Good Morning Will,

As you can see from the pic we had ours fitted to a HR382. The blade sports a couple of rows of shark teeth marks after a tussle in the Pacific. We used that Hydrovane all the time saving wear and tear on the main steering gear, a problem we had encountered using a [servo pendulum unit] on an earlier boat.

Long Live Hydrovane

Dave
