Hi, I like the idea of the Edson Rail Mount, but I have a question for anyone who has used one.
How do you ensure that you don't lose the Key from the Wheelshaft? In the winter when I take the wheel off so I can get to the back of the cockpit under the cover, I wrap the Wheelshaft with the key in it with masking tape. I suppose I could do the same while cruising but I am wondering if anyone else had a more elegant solution. Eric C&C 34/36 -- Big wheel and love it.
