Hi Joan,

Bruno,
That is indeed very luxurious!
And I guess you have some b&g displays at the helm? Or do you use the the Zeus with sailsteer? What about your autopilot?
Sorry for all the questions.

Re: Genoa car control wheel
Thanks, Bill and Bill- While tefgel is clever, I think its kind of a band-aid approach. I’m hoping Mark McGovern is reading this and can send info on the stainless steel wheels to “lorient422”

Re: Genoa car control wheel
You are referring to Mark McGovern, and if Henri could have a "do-over" I believe that Henri would have done what Mark created.

Hi Ben
Question 3: that's right, the only function of the pipe is to stop the rudder quadrant. The bolts allow you to adjust the stroke end on both sides of the blade. Nothing else.
