another enjoyable video, I am learning by watching you tack. I am a novice solo sailor on a 1975 Dufour35. Since you've switched, do you find you prefer the wheel or tiller? I have a wheel, but i think mine originally had a tiller. Cheers.
Hi ya. In my mind wheels are awful things on boats our size, they dont offer anything useful and just get in the way... but for some reason loads of people like them and so loads of boats have them. I guess if your sailing with crew so can afford to have one person just steer then they arnt so bad but if your sailing short handed they are a pain
@@SailingwiththeFoxwellFamily Thanks for providing this insight. You’re not the first one I have heard say this. I’m looking for my first boat. Will go for a tiller for sure 👍🏻
Looking for Jeaneau right the way!!
