The QUARTERDECK Sailing Podcast
Sports:Wilderness
Andy Schell & August Sandberg answer QUARTERDECK member Olwen's call for an in-depth look at self-steering systems. We discuss what makes a boat steer herself, from the purity of balancing sails and rudder, to electronic & hydraulic systems, to the classic, mechanical windvane self-steerers. We've got the technical details covered for sure, but don't worry, we've sprinkled plenty of our philosophy in there too of course!
