Hi Jeff. How do you intend to use the boat?
In Response To: block island 40 ()
I have a similar boat, and Alden Challenger yawl. A bit smaller and lighter, but as we use it for coastal cruising, I've had good luck with an above decks wheel pilot. 10 seasons now on an Autohelm 4000ST. The AP gets used alot sailing on the coast of Maine and New England. With adjustment of the rudder gain and response, it can steer under almost any conditions.
Nice boat btw, have any photos?
