Afternoon,

Just to let you know I installed the Hydrovane on our 2001 Moody 47 following the detailed YOUTUBE videos you produced and the excellent installation manual.  Please see some installation pics attached for your reference.

We have also used the Hydrovane for 2 x 100Nm legs already here in the Caribbean and so far am very impressed and wish I had purchased one a long time ago. See video attached of it being used in 20 to 25kt winds.

Finally, met a fellow Hydrovane user here that gave me a top tip:  Before you engage the Hydrovane, balance the sails and then set the electronic autopilot as that can give a good indication of where to lock the wheel off.  Then lock the wheel and engage the Hydrovane.

Regards

Lee Adams
