Ditto.  It’s the only instrument I have at the wheel.   I kept the navpod base 
fitting loose so it can be turned to either side or forward for better viewing.

Ours is mounted on the inside of the cockpit on starboard, in the narrow
part of the T. Wherever you mount it, make sure you can't do stuff to it
with your knees while docking, etc.
We have had sudden episodes of tight circles when someone rushes to the
natural point to grab lines. If it's disengaged it's just really annoying,
but the beeps drive me crazy.

Re: Stus-List Rolly Tasker Sails

[Mike Brannon via CnC-List]

I bought sails from Rolly Tasker through National Sail years ago.I had a 
problem with one sail and they made good on it.   They sent a replacement.   
For what they are they aren't bad sails.   I even won a couple of races on 
those sails.  I'm now using North sails and can tell a difference in both the 
sails and my checkbook.

Re: Stus-List Max prop angle

This may just confuse thing as our engine is an atypical Yanmar Model:
3JH2-TBE so has a turbo and 47 Hp.

Anyway, these are the specs on our prop and its pitch setting in inches (I
don't know what that translates to in degrees):

We have a Dacron cover as I figured sending the sail to the loft every 5 or
6 years was probably a good thing. to do.

Re: Stus-List Rolly Tasker Sails

My sailmaker recommended dacron over Sunbrella as it gives a better sail shape

headsail. His opinion was that they are typically good for 5-6 years or less, 
and better suited to use on sails used for club racing and not left for long

Re: Stus-List Rolly Tasker Sails

[Bill Coleman via CnC-List]

This brings up an interesting story. The local sailmakers get's really 
irritated when people bring cheap Chinese sails to him to fix. A few years ago, 
my girlfriend at the time told me a good friend of hers was really bummed, said 
their sailing season was over because the clew of the roller furling main had 
pulled out due to  UV exposure. The sailmaker had told them he couldn't get to 
it till October ( it was June ). She asked me if I could talk to the sailmaker, 
 as we were friends. When I brought it up with him, he went flying off about 
all the crappy sails, these new sailors  never buy anything from him but they 
want him to fix the junk that they get because they're too cheap to pay for 
decent  sails,  yada yada. Well, by the weekend I  heard that they had their 
sail back,  repaired. Not the  end of the story. A few weeks later, the 
sailmaker told me he  ended up down at a local urgent doctor's office for some  
ailment, and the doctor said, how  are you doing Dave, but  he didn't recognize 
him  immediately,  but it was the fella with the Hunter and the cheap sail! 
Needless to say, he was glad that he had fixed that one !.

$1500 is a third of what I paid for my main.  Great price!  My only concern 
would be, do you have the knowledge to detect design or build flaws?  If you 
found flaws, what would your recourse be?
