What would be the best wind vane for a 22 foot O’Day sailboat? What do you think of a basic servo-pendulum steering gear? – Melanie E <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Hi Melanie: Easy part first – servo pendulum wind vanes are the most powerful and what we have preferred ourselves (much more on the subject of wind vanes in our Offshore Cruising Encyclopedia).<\/p>\n
As to what would be best for an O’Day 22, that is a tougher question. Because of the small size you might need to find something a little different – the typical wind vane might be too big. I’d check with some of the vendors to see what they recommend. One of them is Scanmar at http:\/\/www.selfsteer.com\/ Good Luck – Steve<\/p>\n
