I'm rigged up and ready to go on a weekend where I got in three consecutive days of sailing -- first time ever. Next acquisition: tiller extension. It is now clearly in the must-have category.
That's a beautiful little boat there my friend! Instead of an extension. You could get a longer tiller that tilts up and out of the way when you're not underway.
Yeah, it surprised me how short the tiller was. I constructed it just as the design described it, but this was one of Dudley Dix's early designs, I believe. It's the Argie 15.
I did make one change early in the life of this boat: the tiller definitely swivels up and down now!
