Looking at your photos, it looks like a simple trim tab off the rudders. I have built a system like that on a previous boat. The drawback was that the trim tab was bolted to the back of the rudder, so the trim tabs lived permanently in the water like the rudders. Is the setup the same with the Wharrams windvane?

THanks Daniel.
I have a an electrical wheel autopilot which is good as you say for short trips.
I will make the windvane a project. Thanks for the info.
Cheers.
