Beneteau First 47.7
“I have relied hugely on my Vane both as the principal pilot to windward and as a back-up rudder should I have the miss fortune to loose my rudder. It has served me very well and I recommend it highly.”

Hi Will,
I purchased my Hydrovane in 2009. I have since sailed my Beneteau First 47.7 from Gibraltar to Istanbul, (and many places in the Med of course) and then from Turkey to the Caribbean. About 90% of that has been solo or with non-sailors. I have relied hugely on my Vane both as the principal pilot to windward and as a back-up rudder should I have the miss fortune to loose my rudder. It has served me very well and I recommend it highly. I have had excellent support from the team at Hydrovane. Next year I shall be enter the Pacific heading west.
You are welcome to add those comments to your site. I wore out my Hydrovane T-Shirt long ago. But I used to get a lot of laughs from it as well.
Good to hear that you are in the Pacific. Perhaps I shall see you out there.
