Hello all,
Despite some of the folks recommendations, I have to face the fact that my wife does not want the large steering wheel on Astralis. As cruisers, the idea of a wheel that takes extra contortions to walk around is just not attractive to her (or to me, to be honest), especially when we intend to use the boat for fun but fast coastal cruising with a goal of eventual Caribbean cruising. Since finally installing the autopilot over the holiday break, I already find myself spending less and less time at the helm. So, our large wheel is now available. It is 54" across, aluminum, and has a standard Edson 1.5" hub with keyway slot. Here's some photos: https://www.dropbox.com/s/8e8vu33an0i4716/Large%20Sailboat%20Wheel%2C%20Othe r%20Side.jpg?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/anyk7z1je52hbrk/Large%20Sailboat%20Wheel.jpg?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/966m408hwz00tfe/Large%20Sailboat%20Wheel%20Center. jpg?dl=0 It is quite light (probably less than 5 lbs.) but large enough that shipping may be a tad pricey. Those who are interested, please feel free to drop me a note offline. Kindest Regards, Bruce C. Whitmore 1994 C&C 37/40+, "Astralis" Madeira Beach, FL 847.404.5092 bwhitm...@sbcglobal.net
