Remove the steering wheel?
The boat was build with a steering wheel and an emergency tiller. As it was therefore easy to change, I decided to remove the steering wheel and have a tiller installed. I prefer a tiller as it gives me more freedom to reach out to the main sail sheet and traveller and the genoa winches. Apart from the fact that it gives you a better feeling on how the boat is sailing. It also means a simple autopilot can be installed. So on to the internet on how to build a tiller and what wood to use: Here the end result with the auto pilot installed. The wooden cover on the floor of the cockpit is where the steering wheel used to be. Later I fill the hole with epoxy resin. In a future stage this will be removed completely.
