Bill, thanks for the picture. I get the idea. Since the openings are rather low, I assume that the holes have also been used for the lower bolts.

Jens, by the way, I have seen that you also have an Inmarsat Global-3 EPIRB on Tramontana. I guess you got the exchange offer from Inmarsat as well?

Find photos of Tramontane's Monitor mounting at 'Scanmar International' website. Go to 'Boats and Photos' and then to Nicholson 31. Some good clear pictures.

I fitted a Windpilot Pacific in Helsinki in '97. It was delivered direct from Peter Fortman in Hamburg. It was a little difficult to fit requiring 2 U bars to be made to clear the rudder. However it has been a truly magnicient gear very easy to use and strongly constructed. I consider it a much superior gear than the Aries which I had on my last boat.

Re: Windvane
Peter,
What was your last boat that your Aries tried to steer?

Bill,

I'm more impressed by Blueprint after each new photo I see of her kudos to you, she is immaculate.

Do you do your own bright work ? I would appreciate any tips.

Regards David.
