Hi doug

To help you visualize the tiller setup start by thinking of a line going
from the cockpit coaming to the  tiller to the opposite cockpit coaming.

You have to hold the line somehow.  That is what the small jam cleats do.
 One on the Port side and one on the Starboard side.

Now you need the ability to to make adjustments till you find the right
position to hold the tiller.

That is done with the bungee cord on one side which acts as a spring to
hold tension on the adjustable line,  the line with an adjustable length
eye on the other side.

You now can vary the length of the bungee cord and it's tension by
stretching it a bit more or less and then holding the end in the jam
cleat.

You can do the same with the line with the adjustable loop on the other
side, which allows you to position the tiller accurately to hold a
course.

Does this clarify the setup?
